Estimated Duration: 1 days

To determine how long it takes to binge-watch a Netflix series, calculate the total runtime by multiplying the number of episodes by their average duration. For example, a 10-episode series with 45-minute episodes takes about 7.5 hours. Popular shows like 'Stranger Things' (25 episodes, ~50 minutes each) require ~21 hours, while shorter series like 'The Queen's Gambit' (7 episodes, ~60 minutes) take ~7 hours. Watching 4-6 hours daily allows completion in a few days. Factors like breaks, sleep, and pacing affect total duration. Choose a comfortable viewing schedule to avoid fatigue.
