Ennui in TV Show

Ennui is the feeling of listlessness and discontent that strikes after binge-watching a 10-season marathon of a favorite show. It's like the existential dread that you've wasted your life on a character's questionable life choices, but can't look away from the screen.

Here's some signs you might be experiencing ennui:

• You've spent more time thinking about the plot holes than actual plot.
• You've re-watched every episode 5 times and still can't remember the main character's name.
• You're considering starting a petition to get the writers to write more episodes.
• You've developed a strong emotional attachment to a character that you'll never meet in real life.
