I suggested this idea in another thread but i want more people to see it. Its a wonderful way to get people over your house to have fun. It seems like a lot of people I meet love Netflix so its pretty easy to get them over.

Last saturday i hosted a Walking Dead marathon. I asked a girl that i barely knew, she was hesitant so i asked her to bring 2 girls and I would ask 2 of my buddies, plus supply some beer, liquor and pizza. (supplied by my buddies of course). They came over at about 5, we laughed, ate , drank and then after that we all went out to the bars together. We plan on doing the same thing again this saturday watching season 2.

Just giving out some ideas. Opinions?

Its best to watch shows that you have the entire season of, like Lost, True Blood, Breaking Bad etc... Football is a good idea as well.

I wouldn't go over to a strangers house. This would only work for someone in my social circle or had known for a while. No way would this happen on the first couple of dates. I don't know if you are cuckoo.

It's like a meet up group, only half the people are strangers.

I think that's why she was hesitant at first. Once I suggested that she bring her friends then it was cool.
It's like a meetup group except your watching tv shows & drinking lol

Listen to this.

A group doing this is more a friend thing than a date thing. Invite a girl to do it alone (bar preexisting friends ofc), and she's going to assume you don't want to spend more than 5-10 minutes actually watching netflix. "Hey let's go watch a movie at my place" isn't an offer to appreciate cinema in a dating context.
