Matthew and Angelica are real time chumps; I much prefer watching a show after it's conclusion to being left hanging and glued to the TV every week like they are.
I was the biggest real time chump when the series Lost was being aired for the first time on ABC in the '00s.
OMG OMG OMG! Addicted to the new season of The Bachelor #realtimechump

Between Netflix, Hulu, YouTube, I'm no longer a real time chump but then again, I can't discuss any of the shows currently airing either. #firstworldproblems

Alex is Netflixated; if it's not on Netflix, Alex won't watch it so don't even bother suggesting it!
Unaffected Person: Did you see (insert the name of the show)?
Netflixated Person: Is it on Netflix?
I get so frustrated with people who are Netflixated because they can't discuss anything that isn't on Netflix!
Don't talk about (insert name of show) or you'll spoil it for me because I'm Netflixated and I've only seen seasons 1-4 since that's all Netflix has.
Unaffected Person: Thanks for recommending (insert name of obscure show)--I loved it! How did you find it?
Netflixated Person: Oh, no problem. I'm Netflixated and know about all kinds of interesting programs deep in the bowels of Netflix.
