Netflix Subscribers Want the Service to Know They're Still Watching

We've all be there. You're all settled in for an epic binge-watch of your favorite show on Netflix, happily working your way through the episodes when all of a sudden, a message pops up on screen. Netflix wants to know if you're still watching.

The intrusion from the streaming service is really just doing a spot check to see if you are, in fact, still watching -- you know, they have to have their metrics -- but when you're sitting there and not otherwise engaged with the program running, it comes off as judgy. It's like Netflix is calling you out on your viewing choices, quietly passing judgement on you for whatever it is you're watching and now, subscribers are taking to social media to make it known that yes, they're still watching, Judgy Netflix.

It all started when artist and illustrator Adam Ellis shared a photo of his television with the "are you still watching" message during a binge of The Office. Soon after, others began to chime in with their own reactions to the message, letting it be known that yes, Netflix, we are all absolutely still watching -- be it The Office or something else.
