The current pic on Better on DVD is the cover of the series collection for Firefly. Not only is it poor quality and with big white sidebars, it really doesn't work as an illustration, as this one is all about the audience's reaction to watching it at home and needs a lampshade to really get across. I'm good to pull it and call this one a BUPKIS page; thoughts?

You mean a BUPKIS page.

And I agree on that front. This is pretty clearly JAFAAC.

How do those illustrate the trope?

Well the trope is about shows that are great to archive binge and Netflix is all that so showing top shows to archive binge of someone actually doing a binge would work as an image.

What about this? [1]

Perhaps with a caption along the lines of "Coming this Christmas..."


Alternatively, this: [2]

I much prefer the Star Wars one. The other is a movie day, rather than a binge of a single series or franchise.

[up] My thinking was binging on a single genre/ theme - namely, crappy Christmas movies.

I prefer the Star Wars one, too, although legibility at wiki size could be an issue.

Clock is set. Still voting to pull the current, regardless of replacement.

Pull the current; the Star Wars image looks like it could be a decent replacement.

The current can go as obvious JAFAAC.

A quick and dirty edit of the Star Wars suggestion; with the speech bubble enlarged for legibility. If quality is not up to par, perhaps someone with proper software and photoshopping skills could re-edit the original.

Re-clocking this one. I've pulled the current; any more support for the Star Wars suggestion?

Old pic:

It also helps if you show all of them in the right order.

The clock's up and since there hasn't been any more discussion on the Star Wars suggestion, I'll go ahead and lock up.
