binging
Going on sprees
Binging is indulging in something to excess, typically in a concentrated period.
The word applies to eating, drinking, or consuming media: binging on Halloween candy, a weekend of binging TV shows.
The spelling bingeing also appears, preserving the silent e from binge.
Netflix popularized binge-watching, making binging the default verb for consuming entire seasons at once.
