Decider Polls: Have You Ever Broken Plans With A Friend To Binge Watch Your Favorite Show?

Best friends represent some of the best parts of our lives. Duh, you’re saying, but sometimes, you need to have a special day to remind you of this.

So thank you, Best Friends Day, for just that. A reminder that a best friend is someone who is there when you need it, anytime, anyplace.

Well, unless they’re binge watching their favorite show, that is.

Decider polled our readers on this very subject. Specifically, we asked our pop culture savvy readers this: Have you ever broken plans with a friend to binge watch your favorite show?

Thankfully for friendship in general, Decider readers were loyal to their BFFs. Nearly two thirds of respondents replied with a strong ‘Never—that’s what DVRs are for.’ (And streaming services, too!)

Still, that means that a third of our readers would easily blow off a pal to sit down with the latest season of Kimmy Schmidt. And you know what? If someone was really your friend, they’d understand. That’s what friends are for.
