A recent Netflix survey confirms what many have long suspected: Netflix cheating—watching episodes without your partner—is real and rising. Take the survey yourself to discover if you're a faithful viewer, a #sorrynotsorry cheater, or a serial offender.
What is Netflix cheating? With full seasons dropping at once, it's tempting to binge Netflix originals overnight. For instance, 15 New Netflix Originals You'll Watch in 2017 highlighted exciting upcoming releases like Netflix's own productions that keep viewers hooked. If you've promised to wait for your partner but hit play anyway, you've Netflix cheated.
Netflix's survey shows nearly half of couples have experienced Netflix cheating, rising to 81% among repeat offenders.
Location varies the habit: Brazil and Mexico top the cheaters, while the Netherlands, Germany, and Poland are the most faithful.
Guilty pleasures include Netflix originals like Stranger Things, Orange Is the New Black, Narcos, and Black Mirror.
Netflix's autoplay makes it effortless to keep watching solo, and two-thirds of respondents admitted "the shows are just too good" to stop.
