I recently learned that "How I Met Your Mother" is being taken off Netflix in November. I'm sorry if you didn't know and I am the bearer of bad news. Netflix put a tiny little message in the top left corner saying the show will be available until November 13. At first, I was like "Nah that's not happening" and then I saw the message again so I looked it up. Immediately, panic set in because I am only on season 7 and there are 9 seasons! So that means I have approximately 3-4 weeks to finish the last 3 seasons. Aka I will be watching excessive amounts of tv in the next few weeks to finish the series in time.
These stages of grief accurately describe how you feel when your favorite or current series is removed from Netflix:
1. When you first see the "This show will be available until November 13th" message and you ignore it
2. You see the message every time you open Netflix and you laugh it off because you'd die if they removed the show before you finish it
3. When your friend texts you asking if you've heard your show is being removed
4. Googling it and finding all the other shows and movies being removed and cry to yourself
5. You're in denial and think that you can finish it in time
6. You calculate how long every episode is and how many hours of tv you need to watch a day in order to finish it on time
7. You realize you have to drop out of school in order to watch that much tv
8. Panic sets in and you chug an ungodly amount of coffee so you can stay up all night to binge watch an entire season
9. You get really mad at Netflix for doing this to you and angrily tweet about it (as you continue to watch the show)
10. You go into a state of depression because you realize you won't be able to finish the show on time
11. You accept that you won't finish it on time and look into other ways to finish the show
12. But then you realize how expensive a DVD of the season is
13. You once again drink an ungodly amount of coffee to try to binge the rest of the season
14. You start looking for what to watch next after Netflix rips your heart out
15. You skip classes to watch as many episodes as possible the day before it is removed
