Welcome to the club. It lived up to the hype, didn't it? IMO, it was THE best show for several seasons. Some had issues with season 6, but I thought it stayed solid. I tried not to dislike the last season, but it was rushed and weak and disappointing.
As for binging, it's my favorite way to watch a series, especially ones with complex plots and details. Sometimes I even wait until the end of a season to binge watch shows in lieu of watching as episodes are released. I retain so much more when I watch episodes back to back in a short time period. And I'm also a fan of "previously on" summaries before episodes to refresh my aging memory. đź‘´
