marathon viewing

Extended episode consumption

Marathon viewing is watching multiple episodes of a television series or multiple films in a single extended session.

The term draws on the endurance aspect of marathon running—settling in for hours rather than consuming content in conventional portions.

We did a marathon viewing of the entire first season.

Also called binge-watching.
