A local woman has accomplished what seemed impossible after successfully completing a 29 minute sitcom without doom scrolling.

Maria Gomez (25), who has a daily screen time far too long for her ever to admit to anyone, has shocked her self by actually getting through a longform piece of media in one single go.

"Yeah, clearly the bar is very low, but in 2025 this is a huge achievement" explained the 25 year old, who was still buzzing from the display of stoic focus.

“During the ad breaks I had a few urges to grab my phone, but I pushed through” she said proudly.

Maria, who had initially flicked on her TV with the intention of just having a bit of background noise, found herself staring intently at the screen for the full 29 minute, an act she described as mentally taxing but rewarding.

“I actually followed the plot, remembered characters names, and even laughed at the jokes” she added, still visibly impressed with herself.

Experts say Maria’s experience is becoming increasingly rare, as attention spans across the globe continue to shrink.

“Many adults now struggle to focus on one thing for longer than two minutes without switching tasks” said a local psychologist. 

“finishing an entire sitcom episode uninterrupted is the new equivalent of reading a Dostoevsky book”
