The principle of maximizing the pleasure of a new television series, by delaying the immediate and empty gratification of single episodes, building to a climax when the season can be enjoyed in its entirety.
I've been abstaining for months from the new season of Mad Men so when the box set is out I can practice my Tantric Television on the couch with the girlfriend.

Definition.
The name given to the hours of tv when no one should be watching, namely 3am.
Obviously the name derives from the fact that anyone with a job or someone who attends school should be asleep and not watching the garbage that permeates the airways at these hours.
An interesting note to make is that during these hours, the likelihood of an error happening with a broadcast signal is infinitely more likely to happen.
