　　假期，有人可能出去旅游，有人回家探亲，有人则可能宅在屋里“狂看片”。你打算怎么过呢?

　　Binge viewing rers to a period of excessive indulgence spent watching previously broadcast episodes of a TV show.

　　Binge viewing指在一个时间段内将之前播过的电视节目一次看完，也就是我们口头常说的“狂看片”。

　　Binge viewing is transforming the way people watch television and changing the economics of the industry. The passive couch potato of the broadcast era turned into the channel surfer, flipping through hundreds of cable channels. Now, technologies such as on-demand video and digital video recorders are giving rise to the binge viewer, who devours shows in quick succession—episode after episode, season after season. In the past, such sessions required buying stacks of costly DVDs or special broadcast marathons.

　　“狂看片”行为正在改变人们看电视的方式，也在改变电视行业的经济形势。过去纯播送时代被动的“沙发土豆”们变成了频道浏览者，游移于数百个有线频道之中。如今，视频点播和数字录像机等技术让越来越多的人变成了“看片狂人”，一集接一集，一季接一季地看剧集。过去，这样大量看片是需要花钱买一堆DVD或者特殊播放时段才能实现的。
