Our New Year’s Resolution: Stop Watching So Much Fucking TV

Two thousand thirteen was the year that introduced binge-watching to the lexicon. In a new poll by Netflix, sixty-one percent of respondents conceded to having binged on one show or another, meaning they’d watched upwards of three episodes a single sitting. The message, dear reader, is clear: we’re gorging ourselves on serialized dramas and slick on-demand entertainment. It’s time to step away from the fucking television.
This should be the year we all read more. And because our resolve can sometimes waver, we’ve enlisted our friends at McSweeney’sin a call to action.
Until the end of January, you can subscribe to The Paris Reviewand McSweeney’sfor only $75—that’s 20 percent less than the price of individual subscriptions. Your 2014 will be so stuffed with the best in fiction, poetry, interviews, and essays that you’ll forget where you put the remote, forever.
