In the process of consuming entertainment (tv shows, podcasts, stories, etc), a subject can become obsessed with seeing the end goal completed. With the end goal never getting resolved, the subject becomes hooked on the hope of the next episode. A common symptom is the subject believes that the next episode coming up is going to be the episode where they complete or prove what the series is documenting.
Matt and Chad are ridiculous when it comes to watching about the Oak Island treasure. They are both hooked on cliffhanger dope, and they got it bad. Don’t they realize the show is essentially over if the treasure is found?
