* ''Webcomic/RealLifeComics'': Running since 1999, making it one of the oldest webcomics still active. Lampshaded in the 12th-anniversary comic, where protagonist Greg is telling this to his newborn daughter:
-->'''Greg:''' And hopefully, a few years from now when you're old enough to read, you'll want to go back and read all of Daddy's comics. Maybe even ''enjoy'' them. Won't that be neat?\\

'''Greg:''' Everyone's a critic.

* ''WebVideo/ImAMarvelAndImADC'' has over 100 videos on [=YouTube=]. That's 2 complete seasons of After Hours, working on a third, plus all the original format videos, parodies ad ads. And oh yeah, if you want to understand even half the jokes, you have to watch them all.

* In ''Film/{{Outlander}}'', when Cainan crashes on Earth, he downloads the entire Norse language directly into his brain through his eye. His first words... "Ugh... Fuck!"

* Don't you dare go to Website/CollegeHumor and start watching all 350+ episodes of ''WebVideo/JakeAndAmir'', because before you know it you'll be ''WebVideo/HardlyWorking''. It doesn't help that ALL of Website/CollegeHumor's shorts are about 2-3 minutes long and are hilarious; you can't help but watch one, see that it is only 8:00 PM, and say "one more won't hurt, what's 3 minutes gonna do ... IT'S 4:00 AM!!!"

Contrast with ArchivePanic.

* ''Fanfic/MyImmortal''. You hear amusing lines from it. You hear about it. You want to know: "Is it really THIS stupid/silly/bad/awesome beyond compare?" So you read up on it, not wanting to receive the brain damage you've heard you'll get from reading it. Then you give up and read it out of curiosity, and bile fascination makes you read the whole thing (or you're generally amused by Enoby's adventures). So is it really as stupid/silly/bad/awesome beyond compare as everyone says? Answer: [[spoiler:Yes]]. Even better, there are numerous [[DramaticReading dramatic readings]] of the fanfic on Website/YouTube and other places. Watch/download one of those for some laughs while doing other things!

* Music/{{Vocaloid}}. Part of its appeal is being able to go to Website/NicoNicoDouga or Website/YouTube and finding song after song after song. In the beginning there weren't that many, but now there are literally thousands of songs -- tons for each character. You can get lost for hours just listening to all the funny songs, then all the horror ones, then the depressing ones... You get the idea.

* Strategically keying up all seasons of ''WebAnimation/RedVsBlue'' so it can be watched in one marathon session takes more than a day! Not mention being a bandwidth-intensive mission (although the ''[[https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLUBVPK8x-XMjLwdUZdZzGBk2XZBJvJK7V 282 episodes]]'' that comprise the first 14 seasons are also available on DVD, and 15 to 17 have home releases too). Creator/RoosterTeeth might've facilitated this once they started to release the {{Compilation Movie}}s (used for the home releases, once available on Netflix, and still able for purchase on VOD services) on Website/YouTube. To wit, the first 13 seasons clock in at least 25 hours (and that's not counting in the miniseries, which add an extra hour and a half). Even if this binge ignores the anthology that's [[WebAnimation/RedVsBlueSeason14 Season 14]], [[WebAnimation/RedVsBlueTheShisnoTrilogy Season 15]] is 3:45 hours. At least the ones afterwards are progressively shorter.

* Website/BZPower.com 's The Editorialist made a series called ''Psycho Dogs and Carbonated Beverages''. It has over 300 strips. They even lampshaded this trope in one comic.

** The 10-minute (later changed to 15 minutes) video time limit of Website/YouTube, the most commonly used host for Let's Plays, doesn't particularly help either. This is how two hours of gameplay gets spread across 12 videos, and how veteran LP uploaders can rack of ridiculous statistics like having on average a new video uploaded every 10 minutes.

** Speaking of Website/YouTube... WebVideo/TheAmazingAtheist's videos are an example of this. He does on average 1 video a day and had 664 videos at one point.

** LetsPlay/{{raocow}} has about 6500+ videos on Website/YouTube (as of 2018), as well as over 1000 on other video sites. He uploads 2-3 new videos every day (depending on how many series he has going on at the moment), only ever taking breaks when there is something physically preventing him from uploading (such as a computer issue or a serious injury). Each video averages about ten minutes long. Good luck with that.

* Don't feel like (or can't) torrent? Uncomfortable with fansubs? The below mentioned {{Creator/Hulu}}.com offers a RIDICULOUS amount of professionally subbed anime. And it has the entire series too. No downloading necessary. It even has a few dubs, though those are harder to get the rights to. Especially if the dub is still airing.
** [[NoExportForYou Only for Americans.]]
** But one could always check [[http://www.crunchyroll.com/ Crunchyroll,]] they have quite a few series an average person would've never heard of otherwise. Unfortunately, a lot of the anime available on Crunchyroll is region-locked, too, but not all of it, unlike Hulu. And most of the titles available on Hulu are not available on Crunchyroll.

* As of this writing, the ''Manga/OnePiece'' manga is at volume 104 and chapter 1074, and the anime has 1051 episodes! And that's not even counting all the [[Franchise/OnePiece movies and specials]].

* ''ComicStrip/{{Blondie}}'' has been running since 1930. (Of course, the strip ''has'' been fairly conventional SliceOfLife fare ever since Blondie got married, so unless you're a submarine-sandwich aficionado...)

* Website/ThatGuyWithTheGlasses has over 40 contributors and growing, whose videos often reference those of other contributors, making a binge necessary if a fan wants to understand all of the in-jokes.

* Games like ''Franchise/FinalFantasy'' or ''VideoGame/ShinMegamiTensei'' that have been going on for 30 years or more can be a pain to cover, as both of those series have over 50 games of varying quality amounting to thousands of hours of game time, not including manga, anime, movies or other spin-off media.

* Website/NobodyHere has over 250 entries in the Dutch version alone, a lot of which contain interactive parts. This is made all the easier thanks to the "random" button at the bottom of the page and the frequent [[WikiWalk interwoven links]].

** ''Webcomic/{{Homestuck}}'' has over 8,100 (even longer than ''Kevin & Kell''!!) panels, some with long "Pesterchum" chat logs or other paragraphs of text, and some with Flash animations. The whole thing is a tightly-knit ball of timelines, so you can't skip anything either. And then there's the plot, sometimes requiring visits to [[TheWikiRule the series' own Wiki]] to fully understand, and the 16 main characters, commonly abbreviated to only two letters, to keep track of. It's all worth it, though.
