Longest you’ve had a Netflix film

What’s the longest you’ve ever held onto a Netflix movie?

The one I have out now I’ve had since September 30th. It’s not that I haven’t tried to watch it — it took me five viewings to get through it (and it wasn’t even a bad movie — just slow paced). The longest I had a DVD out was one month, but that was a TV series, so it was a lot longer than a standard movie. Otherwise, three weeks seems to be the maximum, but it does happen with some frequency.

I’ve had them sit around for 2+ months before I get around to sending it back, usually unwatched. Lately most of my Netflix consumption has been streaming.

What is this then?

The Daily Ping is the web's finest compendium of toilet information and Oreo™® research. Too much? Okay, okay, it's a daily opinion column written by two friends. Did we mention we've been doing this for over ten years? Tell me more!
