5 years ago or so I watched Battlestar Galactica for almost 2 days straight. I only had maybe 2 1 hour breaks to eat. Me and 2 other guys watched it all. We had planned the weekend a week in advance. It was pretty fun, but I doubt I would ever do anything like that again.
The only TV series I have ever watched as a back2back marathon was "The West Wing"
I copied all of the DVDs from the 7 seasons (154 episodes) to my NAS box, and then spent on average 4 episodes per working day, and 8 episodes per Saturday and Sunday.
Took 4 weeks to complete, and will probably do it again sooner or later, even if it did mean sacrificing a social life for a month, lol
That would be Buffy the Vampire Slayer when I first came across the show, late 90s, while going through my tapes. I think I did, think mind you, 6-8 hours of it.
There have been those "presentations" at a party or a friend's house, but I don't count those since I either really wasn't watching the shows all the time or I was just being polite company.
Otherwise, despite that there is certainly enough material in the library to support a marathon, they usually aren't done here for a number of reasons. First, there isn't the time. Secondly, I am trying to experience TV as I did as a teen when I was overseas and it only came on for 3 hours or so an evening. Finally, since it is all canned and the inflow capacity isn't that great, there is the push to stretch out the unwatched episodes as long as possible.
