Overview
The Binge Planner takes the guesswork out of "how long will it take to finish this show?" You tell it how much time you have, and it builds a personalized completion schedule — down to the episode.
How to Use It
1. Navigate to /binge or open a show's detail page and click Plan My Binge 2. Select the TV show (or choose from your Watching / Want to Watch list) 3. Enter your available hours per day (can differ by day of week — e.g., 1 hour weekdays, 3 hours weekends) 4. Set your start date 5. Click Generate Plan
The Plan Output
ReelRifter produces a day-by-day schedule:
- •Which episodes you'll watch each day
- •The total runtime for that day's viewing
- •Your projected finish date
Mid-Show Planning
If you're already partway through a show, the Binge Planner picks up from your current episode position (pulled from your Watchlist episode tracking) rather than episode 1.
Saving Plans
Save any generated plan to your account. Saved plans appear in a sidebar so you can reference them later. You can have multiple active binge plans simultaneously.
Adjusting the Plan
After generation, use the Adjust slider to change daily hours and instantly see how your finish date shifts. This makes it easy to explore "what if I watch an extra episode a day?" scenarios.
