I'm rewatching House, one random episode at a time. It's a more fun experience than watching it in sequence, and the show has held up amazingly well compared to my other favorite shows.
Nice , just started rewatching it too 2 weeks ago. But in order. :D
I also started watching it recently and gave up on it pretty quickly. It always seemed to be pretty much the same story arc in every episode.
More fun to watch it randomly? Not sure I see why. :)
To be clear, it’s more fun to re-watch on shuffle, not for the first time. If I restart watching sequentially, I would start remembering the upcoming plot points from my previous watch. This way, it’s more fun to me. It’s like viewing your old photos. It’s more fun when you pick a random photo instead of starting from the beginning and moving down.
Yeah that's true actually. :)
Huh, what's the logic to doing it on shuffle working better than the original order?
