Watched my roommate go from 3 episodes a night to full seasons after switching to subtitles
She used to quit every show by episode 4 because she'd get bored scrolling her phone, but turning on subtitles in January made her actually watch the screen and she binged all of Severance in 2 sittings. Has anyone else noticed subs keep them locked in way better than dubs or plain audio?
Did she actually turn them on herself or did someone convince her? Curious because my ex swore subs ruined shows for her, said she couldn't stop reading the words instead of watching faces and acting. But your roommate's case sounds like the opposite problem, she was bored and the subs gave her something to do with her eyes. What made January the magic month, was it a specific show or just a random switch?
