# of episodes ever watched straight?

[Alexeil]

Well I just got done watching five SG1 episodes straight thru, back to back. It went really fast too, didn't seem like hours at all. It's a new record for me, but I'm sure it's nothing compared to some fans. So how many episodes have you ever watched in a row straight?

[Jafana]

I think that the most I watched was with Saharagate - we did 3 days straight of stargate, and got through the first 3 seasons completely and then watched a number of our fav eps in the later seasons.

of course, we stopped to sleep a couple hours in between, but basically it was pretty intense. but great fun. and really interesting to link different eps that we'd not noticed before.

[Izanami]

3, that's the maximum german tv showed once... the sad thing was, suddenly the 3 hours were over

Yay! I found you! :D

Man, they were the best three days.....I wonder how many we did in one sitting though?

We should have kept track......hmm great excuse to do it again. If only you didn't live on the other side of the country :rolleyes:

[BoBWraith]

The most episodes I have watched in one sitting was about 3 DVDs worth of the season 6 set, which comes out to about 15 episodes. I went to work for 7 hours and then came back and finished the set. :D

Did I mention that I'm a Stargate addict? :o

[Coz]

I've never actually counted but there have been days (many many days) when I haven't actually watched anything else, except for Neighbours of course (can't miss neighbours, that would be criminal). I think that says more for the poor state of British tv than it does for my status as an addict...denial is a wonderful thing don't you reckon!!

[Mustang88]

im going to have to go with all of season 4 in one night.

[Anubis]

I watched the whole of season six and four episodes of season seven at one time. I think it was about 22 hours of Stargate

The next target . . . all of season seven!

[LtLisa]

that'd have to be my season 6 marathon...16 episodes of S6 and both parts of Heroes in under 24 hours. We started early evening, only stopped to eat and sleep for a few hours...then woke up and watched some more!

[aAnubiSs]

44 eps. S2+S3 without sleep.

[thor39]

I watch all the seasons up to six straight thru and then begin again :D Sad existance but i still find something new ;)

[Atum]

Six is the most I can claim.

[Bacardi]

The next target . . . all of season seven!

i did that this weekend.. i was bored and had alot of junk food so just sat down n watched the whole series... hehe

[Sarcazmo The Clown]

I don't know... I taped as many episodes as I could when they started showing on Sci-Fi right from the beginning, (got all the way up to about 75 I think) and there's not much on during the weekends here, so usually I pop in a tape of SG1 and just keep watching until somebody has a better plan. I'd have to do a little math to figure out just how many in a row I've watched, but the number is staggering, I'm sure.
Is that sad??

[spg_1983]

the most i ever watched was 101 episodes with only two breaks for a few hours to sleep.

[sgeureka]

I have almost all episodes taped in order from TV, six episodes on one tape, without the commercials. It is not that rare that I put in a tape and let it play from the beginning (just like yesterday, but I didn't pay attention to it all the time).

When I bought S2 through S5 in two months last summer, I was also watching Stargate almost each day for several hours. But I didn't write down how many eps I managed to watch in one go.

[bcmilco]

Every time I get a new boxset I watch all 22 episodes in a row with the commentaires on, plus all the special features. And Then I'll go back and watch my favoirtes from that season. :D

[evan]

I always watch most of the 5 hours on scifi every monday (except for the eps that I don't like) while I'm doing homework/studying/surfing internet.

last summer I watched the movie and the first two seasons straight through on DVD... I was still sort of new to the series, I'd only seen a few episodes in syndication.

[GateGeak]

11 episodes in a row. I was home sick one day and had hours worth of TiVo'd episodes to watch. FF'ing though commercials is awesome!

[Sam_o_Neill]

The most eps I have ever watched in one sitting is about 6 or 7.

I lie in bed at night and stick a video into the video player and watch every ep on it :p So usually i'm awake until 2/3 o clock in the mornign watching SG because when I have to choose between Stargate and sleep, Stargate always wins :D

[Teal'c]

All of Season 6... I tried doing a whole marathon (every single episode) just before Season 7 aired, but then I found out we were going on holiday, which botched my plans :P

[Jadestar9]

The most I've watched in a row is 10 episodes. That happened when the season 5 box set came out. Hadn't seen hardly any of those episodes.

However I do start each morning with an episode. Stargate and coffee...can it get any better. :cool:

[Baal]

I watched a whole season (22 eps.)

I have seen 132 eps in all. (I didn’t see any of Season Six.)

[Gateman]

I watch 5 every Monday night. :eek:

[Ugly Pig]

A friend of mine who I've introduced to SG-1 have been/is watching the entire series with me, from start to... well, current eps as they get released on region 2 DVD. Nowadays we only watch one disc every time we have a gate-marathon (since we've caught up to the current releases) but when we first started we would usually stay in for entire days and just watch Stargate.

Long story short, I think the most we ever watched in one sitting (not counting the times we got up from our chairs for bathroom breaks, to order pizza or to answer the phone or whatever) was 16 episodes. At least, I think that was the most we ever watched in one sitting... Back then, our standard SG-1 marathon would be something like eight to twelve episodes in one sitting, so I doubt we ever did more.

[chevroneight]

I think the most was over easter break. Myself and my boyfriend watched Series 1-6 in total over a week, and then all of 7 that I have on DVD on the Sunday. Best spent time in ages. Boyfriend+popcorn and junk food+Jack O' Neill. Where can a girl go wrong with that? >o :p

[Mira]

Me and a friend watched all of season three and all of season four... it was really fun... but a little tiring... We didn't watch in order either just went off of episode descriptions... like we watched 'Demons' and directly after felt the need to watch 'Urgo'.... :D

[Andy867]

If I remember correctly, I watched All of Season 4 and 5 in one day for my original record. and my most recent record is watching Season 1 - 6 straight (cept for bathroom breaks and to get more Mt Dew) (My sister asked if I was insane)

[auralan]

Mine's probably 5 from having watched all Monday night a few times on sci-fi. Don't think I've had the attention span to stick with any of the marathons longer. I usually wind up doing chores for an hour or two in the middle.

[amberlina]

I think the most eps i've watched in a row was like 13. I got season 3 and 4 for my birthday and i had only seen some of them so I just sat down at like noon and watched...and watched....oh, and i watched some more. Then the next day i did the same thing. hehe. i just couldn't get enough!

[JSDT]

At least once a month, my friend and I get together for Stargate night. We usually start around 6 and go until 3 or 4 in the morning. Let's see...that's about an average of 12-14 episodes straight. Besides that, the only time I watch TV is when I'm watching my Stargate dvd's so that's usually one or two episodes a night. Oh and Monday nights of course. I do actually watch "real" TV for that. :rolleyes:

Tasha

[MagnoliaAnaglypta]

So how many episodes have you ever watched in a row straight?

More than I would ever be prepared to admit to :D

[Anthro Girl]

We're currently rewatching the entire series on DVD and DVR during the hiatus. We're averaging about 2-3 eps a night. We usually watch a movie, so 2-3hrs isn't unusual. The most we've ever watched straight through is 5, I think...probably when I was home sick from work. By "straight through" I meant not counting pauses to answer the phone, get food, take the dogs out, etc.

BTW, when I saw the title "# of episodes ever watched straight" I thought "Am I the only one who watches sober?" ;)

[e7of7]

I can't watch too many in a row anymore 'cause I have 2 little kids & a husband who doesn't understand my obsession! I think it's maybe four in a row, max. Unless it's one of my truly favorite eps, I tend to just watch my favorite scenes & skip the rest due to lack of time. My husband jokes that someday we're going to sit and watch all seven years of Stargate from start to finish - until I figured out it would take over 5 days of non-stop watching!

This post made me think of the time I stayed up all night with my friend watching The Monkeys Marathon on MTV when I was 15 or 16 (God I feel old!). I just can't do that kind fun stuff anymore *sniff*.

[thor39]

I am gonig to try a similar thing not watching episodes in a row, but I am gonig to try to watch season 1-6 by the time I get the season 7 box set which is on the first day of course :p

[KRiZ]

most eps watched is the entirety of seasons 1-7 as have all of 1-6 on dvd and season 7 on tv-rips and/or promo dvds this took almost six days including sleep, so thats just over a season a day! prob bout 25-26 eps a day with about 4 hours sleep in between!

By the way i am a student and have nothing better to do with my time!
;)

[Whitster]

I fell ill the other day and took some time off of college then my season 5 box arrived so I kained off most of that in a day, now i'm still ill and my GF brought me season 6 yesterday to make me feel better, so of I go again. :D

[Captain Amazing]

Don't usually have enough time to watch that many in a row anymore.

When a new DVD is released I try to savour the episodes as long possible so I only watch one a night!

[Rail'k]

I woul say the first 3 seasons

[KokiriChild]

In a straight stint - i.e: no food, no breaks, no sleep, no interruptions of any kinda and phone on silent I managed close to 40hrs continuous starting with the movie and almost got to the end of season 3 before I realised I was starting to get ultra hungry and I could no longer understand what Carter was saying...

In a stint with breaks (i.e: 3-4 hours sleep and food) I've watched movie + s1 s2 s3 s4 s5, and if I had s6 and s7 on DVD I'd watch them too

[gambit3131]

My post #1. Yeah!!

I watched The movie (Special Edition) Season 1, 2 and 3 during a weekend.

[KokiriChild]

My post #1. Yeah!!

I watched The movie (Special Edition) Season 1, 2 and 3 during a weekend.
Did you do it without food or sleep though, because if you did then I admire you and will permit you to join my club... membership details in the mail ;)

[MasterPower]

The day I bought Stargate SG-1 season 4 on DVD I watched over 10 episodes back to back.

[Metonic]

Lets see I watched the monday line up of stargate then I watched Season 3 then I watched my favorite episodes then I watched episodes I missed then I watched the movie on TV(which convently started after i finished with the ones I missed) Then I watched some of the ones that I had forgotten about, then I watched once based around the Ancients, then I watched ones based around the Asgard Then I watched like 3 or 4 based around the Tok'ra, then I watched the first Episode so I could hear Teal'c Say Few have said that you are the first i belive or what ever and to see a personal side to Daniels wife lol if u seen dvds you know what i mean LOL anyway I watched alot more after wards and I took some breaks for like 20 maybe 30 minutes between a few of them but it took me 2 or 3 days max is 4 lol I was home sick from school for like a week and a half i had to do something lol

[MartoufMarty]

Well I just got done watching five SG1 episodes straight thru, back to back. It went really fast too, didn't seem like hours at all. It's a new record for me, but I'm sure it's nothing compared to some fans. So how many episodes have you ever watched in a row straight?
i spent a whole day once laying in bed (sick! i had the flu or something) watching episodes from tapes. obviously a couple years ago. i have seasons 1-6 on DVD now :P. i think maybe... 2 tapes. that's about.... 10 episodes. and also a couple other times when i first got some seasons on DVD i would watch a bunch at night. i think once i watched sg-1 episodes from about 10 pm to... 5 am. i fell asleep after that and was woken up by my parents half an hour later

[Supreme Commander Thor]

8 episodes in a row is my record.

[sueKay]

12 eps (half of season 3) in the one day (with a break for coffee!).

Back in my Trek days, I watched 30 episodes of Voyager straight!

[TheTroj]

My top is 3 DVD's worth.

[Ancient 1]

Just 5. Mondays on SciFI channel.

[Pdixie]

I watched most of season 2 in a weekend....

[InspecterJones]

umm, earlier this week i went from season one up to the ltest episodes...so thats 7 seasons and 5 episodes, lol...BEAT THAT!

EDIT: not the first time either...gone season 1-7 two or three time before also

[LtLisa]

in a 24 hour period me and a friend watched 19 episodes: Heroes 1 and 2 and most of S6...would've been 25 hours (in a bit more than a day, lol) but we didn't have all of S6. We went out to dinner and barely slept...it was great

[aschen]

The most I've watched...hm... O.o 22 in a season... o.O 44 in a row.

[Elwe Singollo]

Wow, so you spent 44 hours straight just watching SG without no sleep? Goodness Gracious, or did you stop, then wake up and continue, or is that not counted?

[Anthro Girl]

Y'all have been issued a challenge:


Teens Claim to Set New TV-Viewing Record
Fri Aug 20, 7:46 AM ET
Odds and Ends (http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?file=/news/archive/2004/08/20/national0647EDT0491.DTL) (see last story on the page)

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. - A pair of teenagers who spent more than two straight days publicly glued to a television set say they have set a new world record for uninterrupted TV viewing.

Chris Dean, 16, and Mike Dudek, 17, logged 52 consecutive hours of viewing time by the time they ended their feat at 7 p.m. Wednesday.

The teens, who are incoming high school seniors, surpassed the Guinness World Records mark of 50 hours and seven minutes by nearly two hours — giving new meaning to "must-see TV."

...<snipsnip>...

The pair also had to complete their task in a public place and keep a log book and video documentary of their activities. They dined exclusively off the IHOP menu — taking occasional shots of maple syrup — because outside food was not allowed.

Dean's parents, Gordon and Brenda Dean, helped document the event and said they were proud of their son's unusual achievement.

"He has to be good at something, this is just as well," Gordon Dean said. "He set a goal and reached it."
Awww...the parents are proud. How sweet! ;)

No word on what they actually watched. I bet somebody here could easily beat this with a set of Stargate DVDs and some Jolt cola. :p However, if the rules require that it be broadcast TV, my mind would be Jell-O by about the 15-minute mark. :eek:

[michelleb]

well, i came upon stargate accidentally, so when i saw hathor, i demanded all my boyfriends tapes of stargate and watched them all in a weekend. it was all the episodes from children of the gods to the serpents lair, in two days. so that's about 11 at one go? i get obssessed by things, and have to have as much of the thing i'm obssessed at once as i can get

[Ancient 1]

Just 5. Mondays on SciFI channel.
Recently sat thru 8 recording I made on tape.

[Dragonlor]

Five is my record as well. I just cannot sit in front of a television much longer no matter what is on it.

[Rail'k]

Seasons 1,2,5,+6

[psucaptainkickass]

I don't know if this counts. But this was back two years ago when I got into the 'Gate. My roommate had seasons one through 6x11. Needless to say I got hooked, and I saw everything in order for two and a half weeks. I would get up...watch an episode, go to work, come back, watch till midnight or one in the morning...repeat. On weekends it was just stargate...that's all i did for two and a half weeks. :D

[Pharaoh Atem]

i could watch a full season maybe not every episode. i own season 345678 on dvd. but i can't sit and watch it all in one showing i would have to uten it off and do something else for a while

[mother-goose]

i've done 12 eps ina day, i was ill and couldnt sleep

[The Signal]

I watched all of S8 in 1 day when I was ill

[Ouroboros]

I did some pretty huge marathons when I was trying to get caught up with the series after I decided to take an new interest in it.

I pounded down 5 seasons in about a week that summer.

It messed up my brain to the point where I couldn't stop hearing the music in my head and I dreamed about the episodes several times.

I'm about to start doing it with Aeon Flux the series now over Christmas break so hopefuly the dreams will be more interesting this time.:D

[jebus]

44 eps in 2 days when I found seasons 1 and 2 in the store...


:D

[newtrekker]

I watched about 6 episodes straight.

[Dorka]

My friend and I watched 10 Episodes of Atlantis... bc she haven't seen any of them yet and I had all.... well after these 10 hours we ate too much popcorn and our head was really pounding...so we decided to watch it rather in "2 episode per session"-step :D

[jazz!]

whoa! The most I've seen is 2.
When SkyOne used to (UK) show back-to-back season ender + new season episode :(
I need to get some DVD's

[James_the_Wraith_Sympathiser]

Far out....I thought watching 4 in a row was pretty intense...well it is for me hahaha. I usually get one of the DVDs from a box set, put it in my laptop and watch it before going to sleep. Luckily I'm on Uni holidays now, during semester I was pretty sleepy alot of the time :D

My laptop is widescreen also...so I get to watch the eps in pure 16:9 goodness :cool:

[Stricken]

All the episodes in 8 Seasons in a week and a bit :D

[SnoggingPicard]

Man I lose. My best is eight or nine in one sitting.

[Samuel J. Tilden]

I'm not exactly sure what my record is but I can't imagine that it's more than 8. Back when I first got Seasons 1 and 2 on DVD, I would watch at least 1, sometimes 2, discs a day for about a week. Later seasons, which I had partially viewed on Sci-Fi and in syndication, were afforded a slower pace.

[freyr's mother]

This is a rare coincidence. Me and 11 of my gatehead friends got together 3 weekends ago on friday night and watched the entire series from my DVD collection. S1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 of SG1 and S1 SGA. We then decided to watch S2-2.5 SGA AND S9-9.5 SG1 alternating episodes. Those I had taped on VCR. We pulled three consecutive all nighters and the only time our eyes were off the tv was to eat and of course when nature calls. We finished the entire thing at about 3am monday morning. We didn't go to school on monday and woke up at about 6pm on tuesday. Our eyes were all bloodshot and it looked like we blazed. We were really messed up. I'm never doing it again.

[PG15]

I'm about to conduct a 6-ep marathon with my SGA season 1 DVDs, from Childhood's End to The Eye. Yeah, not much I know. :o :p

[Locutus_Of_Borg]

44 episdoes at once, i bourght season 5 and 6 and watched them straight off, actually 45, i watched the last episode of season 4 to make scnese of season 5, so 45 episodes straight, rather relaxing, i drink lost of coke. although i to have to go to the facilities a lot after that. Not that you needed to know that :D

[the fifth man]

I've watched 20 eps in two days before. Had the weekend off, and wasn't feeling too good. Of course, I alternated every now and then for an ep of Farscape. Ended up watching 5 of those. It was a good two days, except the feeling crappy thing. Lots of chicken noodle soup was eaten that weekend.

[Heru'urs_first_prime]

:( only 6 episodes one after the other, i own the origional film, the pilot episode and season 1,2&3 im goint to whatch them all through one day!!!!

[the Fifth Race]

When I first bought seasons I, II and III on DVD I basically watched them (each season) over 2 days. I had seen all the episodes on Showtime before but it sure was and still is nice to view them on DVD. I did'nt watch seasons IV-VIII with as much vigor as I did the earlier seasons, I would watch like 1 disk a day till I had gone through the whole season.

[Odin's eyes]

At most... somewhere in the area of 30 episodes. I bought the first five seasons at once without having watched anything else other then season 1. I got through all 5 seasons in three days. My memory is fuzzy about the details due to the fact it was a information overload. :)

:eek:

Nice! :rolleyes:

[khd]

This is a tough question for me. I'd have to say 20 without sleep. I watched all of the season 7 dvd one day except Resurrection and Inaguration.

Also I like to watch miny marathons of related episodes like the plotline of anubis or episodes featuring the Prometheus. Sometimes I'll spend all day only watching extra features and behind the scenes featurettes.

But my favorite thing to do is to record the new episdoes as they air, back-2-back, no comercials, no opening or closing credits, and then watch the entire season as one "big" episode, approximatly 14 hrs.

[scjon]

Probably about 12 episodes (3 DVDs worth) in one go. I usually watch 1 DVD a night.

[sueKay]

probably about 8 in the one go

I've seen s1 more than any other, cos I always start a big marathon and stop at about episode six, then start again at CotG a few weeks later!

[plaw15]

I watched 2 seasons without sleep, which took about 32 hours including a couple of breaks. It was really fun!!!

[Lord Shiva]

Well I just got done watching five SG1 episodes straight thru, back to back. It went really fast too, didn't seem like hours at all. It's a new record for me, but I'm sure it's nothing compared to some fans. So how many episodes have you ever watched in a row straight?

Depends, I sometimes watch it while I work, etc. so I've gone through at least half a season or more on occasion lol

[jia]

When I was living in China my mates and I had a 12 Stargate viewing, including the movie.

[chriswin8]

Two or three times a year i have a week where i will not be able to sleep at all. Generaly in the fall or the spring. Yes thats right up for a full week. Not for a lack of trying to sleep.

Anyway. When it happend back in the beginning of November i watched:
The movie, then s1 - s7 taking a 10 - 15 min break at the end of every DVD.

I hate those weeks but this time sence i did the Stargate marithon to end all marithons It wasn't so bad. And i plan to do it again the next time i get in to one of those weeks.

[walter_MacChevron]

I think the most I ever did was 6 or 7 in a row, and that was in season 2 when every episode was just plain fun-go thru the gate for explarotory reasons, something goes wrong, they get back

[Raptor 1]

I watched seasons 1-7 back to back. Thing is after sitting thru all that you start to forget things. So of course you have to go back and watch those episodes again!

[The Signal]

Holy hell! Thats 4 and a half days, straight :eek:

[Commander Ivanova]

12 (in bed with flu). Watched 4 eps, then the same 4 with commentaries, then another 4 to round off.
Note to self: take more sickies

[Eoin]

The mos SG eps i watched in a row is 8...
It was on one of those days where everything is just boring...so i thought why not turn a boring day into a Stargate day :D

[mishy_mo]

I think i did 17 in a row once - and then the next day watched 10 - more recently tho i watched 7 eps of atlantis in a row.

Boxsets are great! :D

[TechnoWraith]

Well, when i was sick awhile ago, i watched Seasons 1-5 straight through.

[hypergate]

The most I've watched in a given day is 18 episodes. However, over winter break I watched s1-8 of SG-1, the movie, and atlantis without watching anything else. It took me almost two weeks. I did watch some episodes 2 to 4 times because I fell asleep durring them. Yeah, good times.:ronan:

[lissafoss]

season 3 and 4 in 4 or 5 days. i got them for christmas and wasnt very well so stayed in bed and watched stargate.

[mckaychick]

Ive watched probably at the most 25 straight episodes

[timdalton007]

Most Sg-1 episodes I have managed to sit trough was the Viewer's Choice Marathon which was...six episodes in a row.

timdalton007

[RiderMayBail]

I regularly watch a whole season only stopping to go to the bathroom and grab more snacks during disc changes. I rewatch everything from the beginning in succession each time a new season boxset comes out.

[lissafoss]

did ben browder watch all the SG1's, 1-7 i think, just after he got the job?

[ancientalliance]

I believe 39 is my current personal record... :daniel:

[Lokii]

With out stopping for sleep I watched 18 straight episodes.

[CeeKay Sheppard]

My current record is 22, I believe – I was home sick for a day and I watched all of S1 straight through. That was a few years ago, though.

[the fifth man]

Just recently, I watched 14 eps of SG-1 in a day. I screwed up my ankle a bit, and just ended up sitting around all day. And thought, what better way to spend it than with some good old SG-1 episodes?

[ReganX]

Eight or nine, maybe more.

As soon as I get a new DVD box set, the TV is commandeered so that I can watch it - ostensibly to check to make sure that they are all working so I can return it if need be - and I usually do it over the course of three sittings if work or college doesn't get in the way.

[Morgania]

Around 10 during a TV marathon. No DVDs for me yet.

[Jumper One]

I actually haven't watched too many at a time... after five or six episodes, I get what I call "Stargate Overdose", in which I have to take at least an hour's break before I watch another episode... or else my head will hurt, alot. But my next goal is nine or ten... hey, a headaches worth it! :)

[PizzaCelebration]

Strange, because Stargate makes my headaches go away. Anyway, I have watched 17 episodes in a row, from noon to 3 am, with breaks to get food and go to the bathroom. I can tell from reading some of the other posts that I have a lot of work to do!

[LORD MONK]

five

[Chemp]

16episodes+8 hours of sleep,16episodes+8hours of sleep then I got sick and my mother was taken by a goa'uld and she took my computer from me!

[gooner_diva]

I watched 8 episodes of Season 6 on DVD once. :p

[Maccgyver28]

at one point I spent a whole week marathoning season 1-6 and all I did in between was sleep, eat go to the bathroom and occasional vid game play.

[Commander Jumper]

I watched 3 seasons with out sleep before I passed out during Small victories.

[SupremeLegate]

I have watched two seasons, one from Atlantis and one fron SG-1, in two days with just sleep in between. So I guess that would be 40 episodes, only 20 if you go with out any inturuption.

[plaw15]

Me and my friends whatched seasons 1 and 2 straight, 44 episodes, and I have played halo 2 on xbox live for 48 hours once.

[L.A. Doyle]

I think I'm gonna break my record. I'm trying to get my friend caught up before season 10 on Friday. We're going to have a marathon! :D

[Cpt. Obvious]

We're going to have a marathon! :D

A couple of my friends and I are too!!!! I'm so excited!!!! One of my friends is new to the series and we need to get her caught up and the other one doesn't have cable so she hasn't seen Season 9 yet! I don't know how many we're going to get through. I want to go through them ALL!! I'll post how many we end up watching once it happens! 3 days until Season 10!

[Deevil]

Well, we did have to take breaks to get food, drink and other things... but a few friends and I watched 4 seasons straight... then we fell asleep.

[sleeky]

well last week i watched sg1 season 1-8 and sga season 1 in a week and during christmas i watched stargate from 10 in the morning to bout 8 in the morning then had a 3 hour sleep then watched more stargate from 11am to bout 2 in the morning. And yes i am addicted to stargate believe it or not

[muddyalcapones]

The most I have ever watched at once is ~7, but I have a much cooler (or not) record to boast. one time I watched the movie 5 times in a row back to back with no breaks. I almost had the dialogue memorized, but It has since escaped me.

[Miyth]

Right after I bought season 1-8 on DVD, I stayed up for a week only getting a few hours sleep at a time eating nothing but energy bars and laying on the floor watching SG-1. It took me my whole weekend to stop feeling weak and shaky after I was done....

Would you call that an obsession?

[Arga]

It was 5 episodes per evening during 2 weeks!
:daniel:
and then I joined Gateworld!

I used to watch it live, since the first episode, until the TV channel here paused it, waiting for season 7 to finish in the USA..
So before continuing watching the series, I wanted to do a huge "revision".
To be absolutely up to date to all the story arcs.. It was worth it!

[jenks]

12, I made a night of it.

[Carter1994]

Hmmmm... tough one. I watched nearly all Atlantis's episodes, season 1-2, plus about oh, 11 SG-1 episodes in one week. :D

[Palathia]

I think we've been through almost whole season in one sitting minus potty breaks and preparing food.

[Hjalmar]

My best is 6 episodes, off course with a break for urinial reasons and a break for DVDchanging reasons.


also I watched the three extended lotr movies in one go

[Beckett2001]

I bought myself series 8 for Easter and got a bit obsessive about watching them. I watched six episodes on one day, that's the most I have ever watched in one go- though I did get through the whole series in about five or six days.
Clare

[PG15]

Upping my last record, I'm hoping to get a 10-ep marathon done, from "Before I Sleep" to "Duet".

[Exiled Master]

Whenever I get a season on DVD, I usually go nuts half way through. Instead of spacing out the scifi goodness, I watch for 7 episodes straight.

[MIZA]

i once watched 10episodes of Stargate sg1 in one day and watched Firefly in 2 days and the entire Star Wars trilogy one day with also the death of Princess Diana on tv too ! i rule

[KhaosNite13]

I think it was last Saturday, I spent all day, watching randomly selected episodes from a hat. #5 was Reckoning Pt2, and later, like #9 or #10 of my episodes was Pt 1 of Reckoning :D

[the fifth man]

I think the most episodes of SG-1 that I've watched back to back stands at about 13.

[Kidwizz]

i watched Sg1 S1-10 on dvd in about 6 weeks. just finished last week. oh and i'm in year 12 so i had to go to school adn do homework also. and i also watched andromeda S1 and S2 sometime in there too.

[saberhagen83]

Don't think I have ever watched more than 4 eps in one day, but that was back in the days when I first got my boxsets. So I watched 2-4 eps every day for a few weeks. :)

[Rometiklan]

I've sat through a season's worth of episodes a number of times whenever I picked up a box set, 22+ episodes. I just set aside a day on the weekend and I do nothing but watch SG-1 from season's beginning to season's end. It's a lot of fun, but I don't exactly recommend it because afterwards, my facial expression is a lot like Teal'c's.

[Mitchell82]

Well when ever I rewatch it I usually start at the begining and watch 5-6 episodes a day, but this is quite a story. When my wife and I first started living together I told her I liked a particular scifi show which she had never seen and wasnt fond of Scifi. It was about 2 weeks before season 7 was to start back up and she saw 5 minutes of Homecoming on Scifi and was hooked, and we started watching the show and got through 6 and 1/2 seasons in less than a week.

[plastic]

the most episode i have ever watched has to be the whole of
season 9. my dad had just bought me it so the next day
i just watched the whole thing. and loved every minute of it :)

:daniel::vala::cameron::tealc::sam:

[MechaThor]

THE most i have wtached was when me and my m8 wtached all for series 2 in 2 days on VHS (this was years ago) Back then i missed most of series 2 on TV after watching series 1 in bits then not catching it again till series 3 appeared on TV. What a fool i was :mckay:

[Raven6666]

Truly 4 considering there are 4 on each DVD disc, and if you have to stop to change it, won't be straight. I have recently acquired 2 more boxsets recently and have been through 4 a day with the features. If you want to know about my holidays, I think i've gone through about 8 episodes with a few breaks. May have gone past 12 or 16 episodes in a day before, but it took me about 6 days to get through S 5+6

[lindas]

Well I watched S9 in 5 days, plus i was at university at the time. Yesterday I spent most of the day watching my favourite episodes but i had breaks inbetween. but watched at least 7 eps

[Lonao]

Well I just got done watching five SG1 episodes straight thru, back to back. It went really fast too, didn't seem like hours at all. It's a new record for me, but I'm sure it's nothing compared to some fans. So how many episodes have you ever watched in a row straight?


few week ago i watch 12-14 sga series 1 episodes in row without break

[ParadoxRealities]

watched all of s6 straight (one bathroom break). think i did the same with 8. selected randomly, IIRC. great fun though. :D

[Nimbus1208]

I can watch a season in one sitting no problem!!!

[GSRgategirl923]

the most i've ever watched straight was all of season eight so 24 episodes

[Jumper_One]

I can watch a season in one sitting no problem!!!

yeah me too that's no problem! hey I watched 4 season of B5 in 4 days :)

anyway I think the most SG I watched straight was 18 or 19 eps

[jelgate]

The most I ever did was 15 episode (noon-midnight)

[Pranksta]

Probably a season and a bit, maybe two seasons.
Me, my sister and a couples of her mates use to watch a season or two without sleeping some weekends, it was really fun. :D

[Jackie]

I watched one episode!

The last time I sat and watched tv for hours straight is when they had the SG-1, SGA, BSG line up. :)

so sad that's gone:(

[starshineRoxie]

I watched SG1 for about 12 episodes straight once. It was over winter break last year, and I missed most of a season, so my sister let my borrow her DVD's so I could catch up. :D

[Monbackey]

watched all of s6 straight (one bathroom break). think i did the same with 8. selected randomly, IIRC. great fun though. :D

wow.... 16.1 (i calculated) hours of Stargate with only 1 bathroom break.
Phenomenal

[AvatarIII]

9 i think,

[ha'tak_]

i thing that my record is 8 episode

[TheXym]

I've done a whole season in 1 day - gotta love the DVD's. I have a very bad habit of when I take a "mental health" sick day of plopping myself in my living room chair with a large beverage container and some munchies and watching them on the home theater. Or if there's a snow day and my wife still has to work. When my wife is into the episodes as well then it gets interesting. We did season 7 of SG-1 on a Saturday, and seasons 3-5 of B5 after work (she gets home at 3PM, I was home at 3:30). in 1 week.

[Lord batchi ball]

Season six, watched it all day!!! When I got it on DVD. I could not wait.

[WingedPegasus]

I had a "The Seige" marathon one night, so I guess that would be 3. I have the capability of watching stargate for days on end, but my family won't let me. :p

[maylet]

I did 15 episodes in a row, I had a year off from college, last year, because I got sick, so I had all the time in the world to do anything I wanted, and one day I thought "how many episodes can I watch?" and next thing I remember is watching 15 episodes in a row.

[Amaunet]

A year and i half ago i went through all the sg1 seasons...i can't remember how long it took me...but i watched a minimum of 9 episodes a day...the most i can ever remember watching though during one of those days was about 16 episodes...i didn't feel too well afterwards :p

[SaberBlade]

I've watched a full season in a single sitting, maybe a bit extra.

I've watched the whole show in a big marathon over the span of a few days, once with SG1 then a week or so later I did it with SGA.

[2ndgenerationalteran]

maybe 9 during a sg1 marathon

[swammeyjoe]

9 in a row once when I was sick, but it looks like I'm gonna have to go on a marathon to get caught up with SG:A.

[Jumper_One]

9 in a row once when I was sick, but it looks like I'm gonna have to go on a marathon to get caught up with SG:A.

have fun ;)

[Angela V]

No more than 4 at a time. Otherwise my eyes start to glaze over... and the kids will beat me up if I haven't fed them yet :)

[Leous]

right at the end of season 10 me and a friend wanted to see if we could sit though them all and we did if you don't count the sleep time then i made it though 10 seasons

[Promethius30]

8 once but i have done 4 episode stright a few times

[maylet]

I just broke my record, I did 16 episodes in a row

[Fenrir Foxz]

I just broke my record, I did 16 episodes in a row

WoW! lol...
*I could probably break that but it's finding the time*

[wkw427]

Probally 10 on a good day. Would be the entire series if I had dvds :p

[Mattathias2.0]

On Christmas Eve Day I might watch a mini-marathon of Stargate but have it all geared towards one character/foe/ally/you get what I mean. I try to watch episodes that deal with current storylines present in the series.

With that in mind, I could watch Woolsey (12 episodes), Replicators (15 episodes), the Ori (24 episodes), etc.

[chevron3]

7 i think

[MathiasE]

Not sure, but watched the first movie + whole SG1 series from S01E01 to S10E20 in 2 weeks.

[maylet]

WoW! lol...
*I could probably break that but it's finding the time*

It wasn't easy, it took all day long

[Egle01]

This summer I watched all eps. My country's network showed only 2 seasons many years ago. So I had a lot of catching up to do. I guess the first day, watched entire season 1.
In those days I wished days were longer than only 24 hours. I'd watched a lot more, but I didn't have the time. :(
Now my computer is messing with me and I can't watch any ep. :sheppardanime32:

[gateman2007]

I have all the episodes (SG-1 & SGA without commercials) on an external drive attached to my computer, so once I selected them all, made a playlist, and played it from the beggining to the end of the entire series. Granted, I had to pause to get up, go to the bathroom, eat, etc. It took me about 12 days to watch the entire of SG-1. I think I'm going to try it with Atlantis next.

[Annubis' hitman]

ya the most ive ever done at once was 10 and that was intense. I dont think i could do a whole season but one day i vow to try.

[Zatarc]

Well, I only jsut got my S10 DVDs and I watched that all straight in one go, that's 20. But my all time record would be season 8 which was 22. I was a wet and I just stayed in the whole day lol

[Mana]

When I first started watching SG-1 it was because of season 8. My boyfriend made me watch an episode and.. i was hooked... however, I needed to watch all the other seasons before i could watch season 8, i mean, come on, its only right. I think i watched a season a day,for an entire week to catch up to season 9 (at the time). So, i guess that's about 20 episodes. But, to be fair, i think i watched about 15 in a day, and then the rest the next day. But, you get my point. xD

[Major_Griff]

I think I have watched 8 or 9 in a row before. I think when I got S4 on DVD I watched two whole discs one after another so that would be either 8 or 9 (or 10 but I don't think I watched both 5 ep discs together) depending on what discs they were. I could probably watch an entire season of the gate in one sitting if I had to, though I'd rather watch my fav 22 eps rather than a whole season since that would mix it up more.

[Forgottensmoke]

i bought season 3 of ebay and i woke up in the morning (AFTER 12 ;p) and it was their and i watched the whole season before i went to sleep at like 3 in the morning or something

[Amanda_Tapping_Fan]

OK done season 1 - 6 of sg-1 all in one go and would have done more if i hade the others at that point have them now and i would love to do all 10 seasons in a row when i have about a week or more free. I was pretty shattered after doing the 6 so i wonder how shattered i would be after doing all 10. lets calculate how many season that is....131 eps in a row.

[Arga]

:jack_new_anime05:

So it means you only stopped to sleep & pee ? (I assume you can eat in front of the TV...) because "watched straight" means, I think, watch without a break!
Congratulations!

[Amanda_Tapping_Fan]

Yip thats right, ate infront of the TV and only stopped to sleep (which was not very much) and pee (which you have to wait till the end of either the ep or season depending on my mood at the time).

[Asgard_Thor]

wow! you have me beat.

i think for me, it was the first 11 episodes of season 4 in one evening, it went by quickly, but it was great! i've started to watch one episode every night, starting at Children of the gods of course, and i'm working my way up. tonight is Thor's Hammer, and it will be a good one!!!

[Amanda_Tapping_Fan]

Ah good ol thors hammer like that one. I try to watch one every night (its a new development) Ive watched them from start to finish 3 times so i desided to watch them randomly before doing all 10 seasons, maybe ill wait till atleast one of the movies is out so i can add that to the list

[Arga]

My next marathon would be to watch all the episodes with the audio commentaries.....:daniel: I just wish they would re-edit the first 3 seasons with commentaries. The situation now is just unacceptable! :mckay:

[Chappa'ai]

I dont like the commentaries for Stargate which is wierd cause i watch the commentaries of everything. I watched Season three all the way through with only breaks to pee(like maybe twice) i got it for this past Christmas, and i watched the entire thing straight away. I only have up to season four however, when i get money im going to buy more seasons and hopefully have a marathon of all eight season (maybe nine and ten if they are out by that time. ^_^ and i managed to watch three seaons of Atlantis in a week.(i skipped a few of the first season though)

[camulus13]

i was really bored so i decided to watch all of the episodes straight through. my parents weren't too happy with me commandeering the television for a better part of a week. but i had fun doing it.
