Watcher's Block

Similar to Writer's Block and Reader's Block. Happens when you are watching a series / film / drama / etc. but can not retain the attention span to watch for long periods of time. As well as the shortened viewing time, the ability to retain what has been viewed is impaired.

Another symptom of Watcher's Block is the shorter periods of time between channel changes.
1: Did you watch that DVD I loaned you?
2: I tried to, but I can't get into it. Watched 15 minutes of it, then just gave up. Think I've got Watcher's Block.

A: You keep flicking channels here, you got Watcher's Block or something?
B: Must have.
