There’s nothing quite like getting lost in a great show—especially Lost. I should know. I’ve binged the entire series three times over the years, and each time has been a completely different experience. From watching it live on ABC’s website back in the day to sharing it with my now-wife (who happens to be named Kate—yes, that made things interesting) to my most recent late-night solo binge on Netflix, Lost remains one of the most captivating and emotionally moving shows I’ve ever seen.
But this last rewatch made me realize something unexpected.
The Evolution of Binge-Watching: From Couples to Solo Viewers
When I designed the Big Spoon Pillow, my focus was on creating the perfect ergonomic cuddle pillow for couples watching TV together. I wanted to eliminate the discomfort of awkward arm placement and stiff necks, making spooning and streaming an effortless experience. And for a while, that’s exactly how I used it—with my wife, sharing shows side by side.
But life changes. With young kids, busy schedules, and different viewing habits, my wife and I rarely get the chance to sit down and binge a series together anymore. These days, most of my TV time happens late at night, after everyone else is asleep. That’s how I watched Lost this time—completely alone, phone in hand, comfortably reclined on the Big Spoon Pillow.
And you know what? It was perfect.
The Best Pillow for Late-Night Binge-Watching
I never designed the Big Spoon Pillow with solo users in mind, but after using it for my Lost rewatch, I realized it’s an incredible tool for individual binge-watchers. Whether you're watching on a phone, tablet, or laptop, the pillow provides the perfect reclined position—supporting your neck, back, and arms so you can comfortably lose yourself in a story for hours.
With the rise of personal streaming, more and more people are watching shows alone, whether it’s late at night, on their phones in bed, or while traveling. The Big Spoon Pillow makes that experience infinitely more comfortable.
The Lost Effect: When a Show Stays With You
Finishing Lost (again) left me with that familiar, bittersweet feeling. Over six seasons, I’d spent so much time with these characters, invested in their struggles, their choices, their fates. Doing the math, I’ve spent over ten full days of my lifewatching this show—yet I wouldn’t take a single second back. That’s the power of great storytelling.
If you’re anything like me, you probably have a show (or several) that you return to over and over, escaping into its world late at night, long after everyone else has gone to bed. And if that’s the case, do yourself a favor—get comfortable. The Big Spoon Pillow was built for couples, but I can confidently say it’s just as essential for solo binge-watchers.
Because whether you're watching with a loved one or on your own, the right pillow makes all the difference.
