100%, especially if I’m watching a show I’ve seen before. Currently watching Parks and Rec for the… 10th time?
There’s something about having an out at any time with the shorter episodes. I know that I’m easily distracted but won’t miss something, because I’ve seen it before. Watching a movie takes a lot more effort because I want to give the movie the attention it deserves, and there aren’t clear intermissions.

Maybe the easy out is the reason. Lol. Easier to pause, do something else, and resume later.
