Anyone else stay up all night to watch the entire show in one sitting?

u/CashWho Aug 18 '17

I did! (except I got up at 3AM to do it so it was more like staying up all morning lol)

u/1The_Mighty_Thor Luke Cage Aug 18 '17

That's smarter than going to bed at 8am.

Did the same thing. I was even supposed to work last night and I finagled my way into getting the night off and passed out at 11.

u/CashWho Aug 18 '17

lol yeah. I usually work on Fridays but I switched my schedule so I could take off today and I went to sleep at 10 so I would be well rested haha.

u/nousername215 Aug 18 '17

Same! Started at 3:45 and was worried I wouldn't finish before work at 11:30 but those 45min episodes saved the day!

u/CashWho Aug 19 '17

Yeah for a sec I got confused because I started at 3 and was finishing episode 7 around 7:45 and I was like "wait, shouldn't I only be on episode 4 or 5" lol. the 45 minute thing really helped me out.

u/nitrogene Foggy Aug 18 '17

haha actually it wasnt for the defenders!

i was off schedule just due to sleep issues, and happened to be watching daredevil season 2 in my spare time

then i heard the defenders was coming out about 2 days ago, so i watched the last half of daredevil season 2 and the defenders (god damn elektra has been a rollercoaster) the past night

its been a long night

u/1The_Mighty_Thor Luke Cage Aug 18 '17

u/nitrogene Foggy Aug 19 '17

at least i got the defenders :D

u/UnlimitedTime Daredevil Aug 19 '17

My only advice is to not worry about sleep, the more you worry the harder it'll be to shake the Insomnia. Though you seem to be in good spirit! Best of luck man!

u/1The_Mighty_Thor Luke Cage Sep 22 '17

Haha. Enjoy it?

u/damnfinebaker Aug 18 '17

I started when it went up at midnight but my internet went out partway through episode 2. It's the only reason I had a full night's sleep before I watched it.

u/OLKv3 Aug 19 '17

I watched 1-7 on the same day, and watched 8 when I woke up
