You've just discovered a new Webcomic. Maybe a friend told you, maybe you were pointed to it by another site. Heck, maybe it was This Very Wiki or the other one.
Like any new reader, you read the strip on the main page. It looks good; the art passes muster, the writing's okay... Sure, you'll read this comic. So you hit the "First Strip" button.
And then you see the date. This strip started eleven years ago. Beads of sweat form on your forehead. You hit the "Archive" link...
Holy Mother of Shakespeare! There are hundreds upon hundreds of comics in here! Even with the longest Archive Binge of your life, it'll take you forever to read all of these!
This is the Archive Panic: when a reader is scared off from reading a comic by the sheer volume of its archives. This is far more common with daily comics, which can easily have lengthy archives by sheer weight of longevity.
Consider: if a strip updates once per day, Monday through Friday, then at the end of five years there will be over 1300 strips Exact count1304 or 1305, depending on where the leap years fall in its archive. The number increases to over 1800 strips Exact count1826 or 1827, depending on leap years if the strip updates on weekends as well.
Now consider a person who has a lot of free time and a fast connection to the Internet, and who reads five strips a minute. To get through that Monday through Friday comic, he would need almost four and a half hours of continuous reading.
Now, while that isn't a lot of time, most people won't want to or won't be able to binge like that. Broken up into short shots, that time can stretch into months; it's easy to imagine someone not having that sort of willpower. This problem is exacerbated when strip-a-day comics are archived on one day per page, rather than one week per page. Thus the time to click the 'next' button and the time for the page to upload can equal the few seconds needed to read each day's strip.
What's worse is that the strip is continuing to update while you're reading through the archive, making it even harder to catch up. Even worse is if the strip doesn't continue to update: there's the risk of it coming to an end. Few things are more disheartening than finally catching up with the current strip and seeing an author's note listing the end of the comic. In two weeks from now.note Even worse is when the comic is Cut Short and there's no actual ending.
Strips with less intense update schedules (say, three times a week) rarely suffer Archive Panic, nor do strips that have suffered various Schedule Slip incidents. (It's less of a hassle to read through the archives of a strip that began 10 years ago if it spent seven of those years in various hiatuses.)
Video Games might be the most subjective medium for this trope, since how long one spends on a game can vary from person to person. Factors include how challenging one finds the game (and which difficulty they play on), whether or not they are going for 100% Completion, and how long they spend on the minigames. A game that one person breezes through might take hours more of playtime for another, and that's just on one entry in a series.
The site Archive Binge lets you subscribe to a webcomic's archive via an RSS feed at a rate you choose, allowing you to attempt to avoid panic. Another tool to help is Piperka which helps you keep track of a few thousand webcomics you might be reading. Piperka's page counts can also be useful for keeping the webcomic subpage updated. For podcasts, Spotify lets users speed up the playback speed of podcast episodes.
See also Doorstopper, Commitment Anxiety. May be eased if the author has decided to make some New First Comics to give readers a safe starting-off point. Can lead to thinking "Are We There Yet?"

The crossover roleplay of Narbonic and Girl Genius, The Mad Scientist Wars. The story (at the current time of writing) has reached around 2200 posts (it's a forum story), and the "shop talk" topic is nearing 3300. It's often a good idea to read the shop-talk topic as well, or else you may miss out on exposition that isn't in the story.

The author of Worm is on a regular schedule of posting seven-to-ten thousand word chapters at least twice a week, frequently thrice. A reader of the story broke it down into an average of 5406 words per update over the course of two and a half years. Worm is 1,535,255 words long as of the last chapter in the story. While the serial nature of the story makes it relatively easy to spread out an Archive Binge over weeks or months, considering that ~150,000 words is more than enough to get a book into doorstopper range, the total length is more than enough to make a shelf full of them. With the completion of the story, it totals 1.681 million words, +-1,000 based on various counts. Wildbow followed that up with Pact which is roughly 950k words written in 15-16 months, and then started Twig, which updated tri-weekly for 30-31 months. Then, wrote a sequel to Worm's, Ward which ended up clocking in at 1.94 million words. His next work, Pale, a sequel to Pact, began uploading just 3 days after Ward had concluded.

The Noddy franchise is comprised of 26 books, a 53-episode puppet show from the 50's, a 1963 animated short, another puppet series from the 60's which is mostly lost save for a single episode, 78 episodes over two different Stop Motion series, a 66-episode Kid Com that was a Framing Device for the second set of stop-motion segments, and 243 animated episodes as of March 2020. Not counting the lost 60's series, this would account for a total of 388 collected works related to the character.

There's also the 2009 television show with its 271 episodes that are each 24 minutes long including the intro and end credits, which would be over 6,000 minutes or just barely over four days of material to watch with no breaks. The 1997 TV show, Anime TV de Hakken!! Tamagotchi, thankfully only clocks in at 27 episodes that are all very short; Let's Go! Tamagotchi is no different with 12 short episodes.

Sonic the Hedgehog (Archie Comics) released its final issues in January 2017 and was confirmed to be cancelled later that year. The final count: 290 issues of the main comic (the officially longest-running franchise-based comic book ever), 94 issues of Sonic Universe, 32 issues of Knuckles' spin-off comic, 5 mini-series totaling 16 issues, 8 specials, 15 Super Sonic Specials, 10 Free Comic Book Day issues, 2 Sonic: Mega Drive issues, several original stories printed in Sonic Archives #5 and throughout Sonic Super Special Magazine and Sonic Super Digest, and, for crossover purposes, Archie & Friends: A Halloween Tale, Sabrina the Teenage Witch #28, Sonic X #40, and Mega Man (Archie Comics) #24-27 and #50-52. That's nearly 500 issues. And if you want to read everything Sonic-related Archie put out, there's 39 more issues of Sonic X plus the eleven issues of Sonic Boom.

Roco Kingdom is just one MMORPG. Not much of an archive panic there. But then it catapulted into Cash-Cow Franchise territory and produced four theatrical films, a webtoon with 59 episodes, a TV show called Roco Kingdom Adventure with 144 episodes, and a Live-Action Adaptation with eight episodes, as well as a few licensed books and a heaping pile of merchandise. Pretty impressive for a Pokémon knock-off.

Channel Awesome. Even just catching up to the more popular series like The Nostalgia Critic, The Spoony Experiment, and Atop the Fourth Wall is pretty intimidating by this point...then you consider that as the site goes on there's more and more crossovers and in-jokes between an ever-growing number of contributors, meaning that for everything to make sense you'll need to go all over the site trying to watch everything in chronological order. It's even worse if they happen to have stories that arc over dozens of reviews.

Pooh's Adventures. Several videos made by several makers, almost all taken down due to copyright. Which video should you start with depends... And most videos tend to split each other in parts, so naturally, depending on the video, you'll be taking a while to watch them all (if so).

SiIvaGunner has uploaded over 18,000 currently available videos, which can range from less than one second to over FOUR HOURS! Most of these are high-quality music rips, but there are also album announcements, takeover announcements, two whole tournaments, and several video series detailing the channel's lore. There also exists album-exclusive content, as well as hundreds of blocked, lost, deleted, restricted, unlisted, or otherwise missing videos...and that's ignoring the now-deleted spin-off channel Flustered Fernando and countless fan channels. Given the channel's upload schedule has almost always called for multiple uploads every day, you're better off not trying to watch everything. Thankfully, it won't take quite as long to get caught up on the channel's lore, since videos that concern it are very infrequent, averting this entirely.

The Beano and The Dandy have both been running for more than 70 years and have been going for over 3500 issues each so there is a lot of stuff to read if you must read it all. The comics are Anthology Comics which means some strips have been running for a shorter time, but even then some strips such as Dennis the Menace (UK) have had over 3000 episodes. The Dandy finally ended after 3610 issues in December 2012.

3000 Whys of Blue Cat. The "3000" in the show's title is actually very fitting, as it ran for around 10 years and accumulated 3,000+ episodes during its run. All of the episodes are available on Youku, even for those outside of China, but even then it's still going to take you a while to get through the whole series.

And then there are all of the spin-offs! Bernice Summerfield's many, many ranges, I, Davros, which explores Davros' backstory, Jago and Litefoot, which went on for 13 seasons before one of the lead actors - Trevor Baxter - died in 2017, and Gallifrey which shows the politics and drama of the Gallifreyan government with both old and new characters. So yeah, there's a lot to get through!

Tamagotchi is a surprisingly large franchise to experience in its entirety.
For starters, there are over 50 Tamagotchi virtual pets to collect as of 2020.
There's also the 2009 television show with its 271 episodes that are each 24 minutes long including the intro and end credits, which would be over 6,000 minutes or just barely over four days of material to watch with no breaks.

There are two feature-length films, Tamagotchi: The Movie and Tamagotchi: Happiest Story in the Universe!, and two short films, Tamagotchi Honto no Hanashi and Eiga Tamagotchi: Himitsu no Otodoke Dai Sakusen!.
And then you have a bunch of Licensed Games and a few manga series and books, among other adaptations and merchandise.

The total amount of Dream SMP content in terms of Twitch streams is over 15,000 watch hours and counting, split across over 30 different perspectives. Good luck trying to get through them all, especially since Twitch vods are deleted two months after they are livestreamed, and many of the content creators don't re-upload the vods on YouTube, leaving the fans to be responsible for preserving them.

Mercifully averted with Calvin and Hobbes. The strip only lasted a decade (not counting two sabbaticals by Watterson), so the number of strips published (even when you include the poems and extra comics included in the treasuries) is pretty manageable compared to the above strips. Though of course, quite a few of these strips are fairly wordy due to Calvin's Sesquipedalian Loquaciousness, and the fantasy sequences and even the standard outdoor backgrounds are surprisingly rich in detail for a comic strip, so between keeping a dictionary handy and searching out all the Easter eggs, you'll be at it for quite some time.

The SCP Foundation:
There are several thousand anomalous items documented, and more are written up every day (even if about half of them quickly get deleted). And once you make your way through the entire list? There's still the Foundation Tales section (as well as the collection of general creepypasta stories). Make sure you have a comfortable chair... and can handle being afraid to sleep at night. Now up to over 5,000, to the point that they had to make Series II to VI SCPs to make space for the new entries. In addition to the standard Foundation Tales, there are now entire alt-continuity hubs, most of which consist of nearly a dozen separate, but intrinsically connected, stories. Get a really comfy chair.
In-universe, there's the poor researcher chronicled in SCP-4010, who was assigned to create a Foundation timeline. It takes her over a year, because concealing so many oft-contradictory pages (including the 001 proposals) is tough - and causes unexpected effects.

Even worse than Garfield, Doonesbury had a complete archive dating all the way back to 1968 (the GoComics.com archive goes back to 1970). At least Trudeau has taken two sabbaticals (the first in 1982-1985, while the second one began in 2014).

The Whateley Universe. You're fine when you look at the homepage and see some stories, but then you go find the list of stories in chronological (in-universe) order, and you realize there's a huge amount of text there. The Phase stories alone are nearing the number of words of all seven Harry Potter books combined, and s/he's only one of a couple dozen main characters. This is made all the worse in the new site, since the stories aren't all in order, and even finding them is a chore. It is on the site owners' list to work on, but they have been swamped with more pressing issues. While the fan-produced wiki and 'recommended starting points' pages help, as of mid-2019 there are over 300 stories (with 500+ separate story chapters) for the Gen 1 series alone, some of which qualify as Doorstoppers on their own, for a total of over 13 million words (roughly the size of 150 novels of 300 pages each).

Popeye first appeared in Thimble Theater in 1929, but the strip began ten years earlier. While the strip still runs nowadays, the daily strips are reruns.

The original run of KikoRiki alone has 215 episodes, with the 2012 CGI continuation, a 2020 2D revival and spin-offs like PinCode bringing it to over 450.

Not Always Right currently has more than 1000 pages at ten stories a page. And when you're done with them, there are four spin-off sites (though none of them are nearly as long). A couple years ago, they added a comment section to each story, so now they take twice as long to read (a couple minutes to read the story, a couple more minutes to read peoples' reactions).

raocow has over 10,000 videos in several host websites, and he usually uploads two new videos nearly every single day, each one of an average length of 15 minutes or so. You'll literally spend months just to watch his most emblematic series. His daily video upload schedule increased to three in August 2017, when he started his 'All the MegaMen' project. Even after that ended in May 2019, he promptly moved straight on to a new project: 'All the Sonics'.

The Super Best Friendcast, the podcast of Two Best Friends Play, only began in August 2013... however, with one episode released a week, averaging 2.74 hours per episode? It would take you nearly 10 days of uninterrupted listening to go from episode 1 to episode 87, for a total of 239.05 hours of Quebec-scented nerd ramblings.

The WWE Network has literally thousands of hours of programming on it thanks to WWE's vast library of Professional Wrestling footage. Even if you limited yourself to a single wrestling promotion and era, it could still take hundreds of hours to see everything from that era. Add also to the fact that RAW, NXT, various other wrestling events (like Main Event), original programming, and PPV's are constantly being added every month or in some cases every week. By 2014, the WWE Libraries clocked at 150,000 hours of programming. Luckily, only 40,000 hours are digitized for the WWE Network. That means it would take over 1,600 days, or a little over 4 years non-stop, to watch everything on the Network- back in 2014.

The VlogBrothers have been making YouTube videos since January 2007 for a rough total of 980 videos, a number that continues to rise at a rate of two per week. That's not even counting the numerous other channels that they have, including Hankgames, The Lizzie Bennet Diaries, SciShow, Crash Course, Truth or Fail, and Hank's Channel, almost all of which have referenced or nodded to each other in various ways and played off of knowledge of events from previous videos, bringing the total number of videos to 2000. While it is possible for new Nerdfighters to follow them without knowing exactly where these injokes came from, the urge to watch the 980 main-channel videos from the beginning can be too great to resist, leading to many a Nerdfighter wasting their summer. They do, however, try to ease this anxiety by providing a playlist of twenty essential videos, including the one that shows the origin of the term 'Nerdfighter'.

The 4chan Archives. Whenever a thread becomes considered "epic" on 4chan, it can be voted to go to the Archives. Almost every board has a section in said Archives. Each page has around ten threads on it, and page numbers vary from a few to the infamous /b/'s section, which, to say the least, is huge. Also note that Epic Fail Guy moments, memes, and various other categories get their own sections, and you've just taken out a good chunk of your free time trying to read them all. Oh, and there's always more coming in. Enjoy your lulzy prison...
Jason Scott was going to upload an archive of TEN MILLION 4chan threads, but apparently backed out.
There are now sites dedicated to automatically archiving whole boards. Anything that gets posted to the majority of Popular boards is now forever archived.

Many Marvel comics in general would qualify such as Iron Man and the X-Men. While the Civil War (2006) crossover is only 7 issues long, with all the various tie-ins across the various series', the issue total comes in around 200. It's made worse by the fact that few, if any, of these crossovers that span the entire publishing run are collected as a whole volume; the main series is collected in a single volume, while the tie-in issues are collected under their own individual titles, with the crossover as a sub-title. Moreover, since events in each individual title are influenced by not only the main series of the crossover, but events in other titles as well, one wishing to read chronologically would have to bounce back and forth between titles/trades to get the story in order. Thus we have the reader reaction known as "Event Fatigue"—not only weary of the convoluted way these crossover events are told, but equally weary of the fact that sometimes readers are given barely a month or two of publications to absorb the new status quo before a new event launches and shakes things up all over again. One wonders how a new reader could ever manage to get on board when current readers are getting tired of the cycle.

Big Finish Doctor Who has a rather massive recap page on this wiki.
For starters, there's the Main Range, which released a new audio story every month from July 1999 to March 2021; there are 275 stories that are usually two hours long!
And then there are the other ranges, such as the Eighth Doctor Adventures and the Fourth Doctor Adventures, just to name two. The EDAs have four full seasons with some specials mixed in there as well. As for the 4DAs, they're still going ever since 2012!
And then there are the boxsets starring such characters as the War Master, the Eighth Doctor, Missy, River Song and some other assorted characters and Doctors. There are also "companion chronicles" to go through.
And then there are all of the spin-offs! Bernice Summerfield's many, many ranges, I, Davros, which explores Davros' backstory, Jago and Litefoot, which went on for 13 seasons before one of the lead actors - Trevor Baxter - died in 2017, and Gallifrey which shows the politics and drama of the Gallifreyan government with both old and new characters. So yeah, there's a lot to get through!
And that's not even getting into the other ranges and stories that Big Finish does that aren't part of Doctor Who; Dark Shadows, Blake's 7 and Sherlock Holmes, just for starters!

Dungeons & Dragons show Critical Role has episodes that usually run for about 3 to 4 hours, with the longest one, the Campaign 2 finale, being just over 7 hours long. Campaign 1 has 115 episodes, Campaign 2 has 141 and Campaign 3 is ongoing, with a handful of canon one-shots and specials as well. (To facilitate catching up for new viewers, there are podcast versions of both campaigns available, with the announcements, sponsor plugging and the break edited out.) And then there are a few dozen one-shot specials and mini-series, some of which are connected to the main campaigns, but most use different RPG systems, or an entirely different setting and characters, and can therefore be watched independently. And then there are over 150 episodes of the Companion Show Talks Machina where the cast answers questions about their characters and the ongoing story, plus a few earlier, more informal Q&A sessions. And the team also makes a number of other entertaining, but non-fictional shows about various geeky pursuits (video games, drawing, etc.), if you still need more content to fill your time...

Neopets has a self-maintained in side newspaper titled The Neopian Times. While the Editorial and Comics are fairly short, there's also been roughly ten short stories, ten sections of longer stories, and ten articles about the site for twenty issues short of ten years solid, and about 500 issues total. The comics section alone is longer than most of the long-running webcomics here. What's worse? A comic could die mid-arc, before the Neopets Team told people to send in the whole arc at once to prevent that.

The series has been running since 2005 and has over 2,000+ episodes spread over 20+ seasons and spinoffs. Put into a marathon, the series would run for upwards of 16 days, or half a month without breaks. Of note, it is the fifth longest-running animated show in the world, right behind Doraemon, 3000 Whys of Blue Cat, Sazae-san, and Sandmannchen.

Stampy's Lovely World is a Minecraft Let's Play series with 823 episodes, and has been releasing new episodes once or twice a week (excluding holiday specials and the Series Hiatus it underwent between November 2018 and August 2020) between 2012 and 2023. It would take an estimated 10 days without sleep just trying to get through the first 700 episodes, and that's not counting its spin-off series, Stampy's Funland, or the Behind the Scenes videos, which are implied to be canon as well.

Game Grumps have put up over 8300 videos as of their launch in 2012. Typical length is around 10 minutes, but some surpass 1 hour, and even now that they've bumped their typical video length to between 30 and 60 minutes they've shown no signs of slowing down. It's not helped that they only have a very small cherry-picked assortment of playlists on their own channel and don't bother to number their videos anymore, meaning viewers have to rely on fan-made playlists that are often obsolete or out-of-order, or skim through the fan-made wiki to create their own, just to do an Archive Binge and get caught up.

After 100 episodes, the Red vs. Blue machinima series started with a fresh scenario specifically to avert Archive Panic, specially as Rooster Teeth's website didn't have every episode free for non-subscribers. But now all the episodes are readily available, on RT or YouTube, for an Archive Binge that ultimately surpasses 24 hours of content. The first 15 seasons consisted of around 20 episodes of anywhere from 3 to 15 minutes long. The three afterwards were shorter on the episode count, while still having chapters rarely below 9 minutes. Each season's DVD has all of the episodes cut together into one Compilation Movie, lasting at least an hour and a half each (also available on various VOD services and the show's own YouTube channel). And it gets worse if seeking the PSAs and other special episodes, many of whom only exist through fan uploads.

BattleTech and its expanded universe have accumulated a massive repertoire of over a hundred novels and a hundred sourcebooks due to it being around since 1984. The plot spanning over a hundred years certainly complicates matters, as novels written later in the timeline will obviously spoil developments in earlier novels.

Motu Patlu has over 300 episodes, all 22 minutes long (two 11-minute segments per episode), so it would take about five days to binge-watch it in its entirety with no breaks. On top of this, episodes are still being produced and aired, making it harder to catch up, and there are also several movies based on the show to add to all this (one was released theatrically; the rest are direct-to-TV) as well as two spin-offs titled Inspector Chingum and Guddu the Great.

NoPixel: Considering NoPixel runs exclusively on Switching P.O.V., and that you'd have combined hours upon hours upon hours of every single person who has ever livestreamed NoPixel on Twitch or Facebook Gaming — and we're talking multiple streamers for pretty much every day since about 2017 — you'd have an impossible task ahead of you if you tried to watch every single NoPixel VOD in full. The general rule of thumb is to watch clips of your favorite character, or YouTube recaps of clips and storylines, but even these can take a good while depending on how much you want to watch.

TV Tropes. Which, apparently◊, some people have tried to read in its entirety. As of March 29, 2010, there are 17916 tropes on the wiki, and the number is growing very rapidly every day. Even if you just skim each one, it will take you a lot of time... especially considering that there's no page which lists just the tropes — the most you can hope for is either the complete list of articles (which is so long that it will likely break your browser) or reading every single index. Referenced here by xkcd.

Sonic the Hedgehog:
Sonic the Hedgehog (Archie Comics) released its final issues in January 2017 and was confirmed to be cancelled later that year. The final count: 290 issues of the main comic (the officially longest-running franchise-based comic book ever), 94 issues of Sonic Universe, 32 issues of Knuckles' spin-off comic, 5 mini-series totaling 16 issues, 8 specials, 15 Super Sonic Specials, 10 Free Comic Book Day issues, 2 Sonic: Mega Drive issues, several original stories printed in Sonic Archives #5 and throughout Sonic Super Special Magazine and Sonic Super Digest, and, for crossover purposes, Archie & Friends: A Halloween Tale, Sabrina the Teenage Witch #28, Sonic X #40, and Mega Man (Archie Comics) #24-27 and #50-52. That's nearly 500 issues. And if you want to read everything Sonic-related Archie put out, there's 39 more issues of Sonic X plus the eleven issues of Sonic Boom.
Sonic the Comic, over in the UK, has a more manageable length: 184 normal issues (everything after was reprints), 9 poster mags, and four specials. And once you're finished with those, there's a fan made continuation.

Batman: Knightfall is huge in every sense of the word. The bare bones of the arc itself, according to Wikipedia, comprise of material from Batman, Detective Comics, Shadow of the Bat, Legends of the Dark Knight, Robin, Catwoman, Showcase and Justice League Task Force. And that's not even getting into the supplementary material like the Vengeance of Bane special or the Sword of Azrael mini-series, as well as a dozen or so lead-in issues of both Batman and Detective that show Batman's fatigue building as well as introducing both Azrael and Bane into the regular cast. And there's the two epilogue series, Prodigal and Troika, which help the story chalk up over one hundred issues in total. And it wasn't helped by the fact that DC only packaged "Knightfall" and "Knights End" in collected editions, but not either side of "Knightquest", though with the new "Knightfall" collection, it's been rectified somewhat: for some odd reason, "Knightfall" included Vengeance of Bane but left out Sword of Azrael while "Knightquest" only focused on "The Crusade" as Denny O'Neil does not think highly of "The Search". Put into perspective, the 2012-version paperbacks of the entire story are split up into three books. Each one is over 600 pages long. Lastly, the 2017 Omnibuses released so far, where the first volume collects the entirety of Knightfall, Vengeance of Bane and a number of prequel storylines setting up Knightfall (except Sword of Azrael) and the second volume collects both sides of Knightquest, finally averting Missing Episode, come in at nearly 1000 pages.

The DC series 52 has fifty-two issues spread over four collected volumes. You're going to be a while.
The 2008 Trinity series, being another year-long weekly, has a similar problem - except this time it's 52 issues over three volumes.
Similarly, there is Countdown to Final Crisis, though nobody would blame you for not reading it.
Then there's Batman Eternal, Futures End... DC had a thing for year-long weekly series for a good decade or so.

Stampylongnose:
Stampy's Lovely World is a Minecraft Let's Play series with 823 episodes, and has been releasing new episodes once or twice a week (excluding holiday specials and the Series Hiatus it underwent between November 2018 and August 2020) between 2012 and 2023. It would take an estimated 10 days without sleep just trying to get through the first 700 episodes, and that's not counting its spin-off series, Stampy's Funland, or the Behind the Scenes videos, which are implied to be canon as well.
Stampy's other series are nothing to slouch at either. Quest takes place over the course of 4 years and numbers at 225 episodes (the first 25 spent trying to kill the Ender Dragon, the next 200 spent... being Cloudcuckoolanders with Squid), and the Dens series with Sqaishey has over 340 episodes over 4 sub-series and almost 7 years' worth of weekly uploads. Oh, and did we mention the Minecraft: Story Mode playthroughs? The challenge series? Building Time? The livestreams, including the Relearning Minecraft series? The non-Minecraft content? Hoo boy, we have got a lot of work to do if you want to watch all his videos... on his main channel.

LoadingReadyRun has enjoyed a very robust run over the years. In 2023, they are holding their 20th anniversary. They produced at least one video a week for 11 years; even at an average of only of 3 minutes per video, that's 28.6 hours of video to watch. Then came all the bonus videos and spinoffs, which would take you a while to watch them all. (Fortunately, continuity is only important within the commodoreHustle sub-series). After 6 years, LoadingReadyRun struck a deal to produce their shorts for The Escapist, and for the following 5 years of weekly sketch comedy, their videos appeared there. They continued to produce spinoffs for The Escapist after the finale of their sketch comedy. A few months after the end of their sketch comedy, The Escapist had some in-house upheavals and LRR decided not to renew their contract (along with a number of other creators, which is outlined on The Escapist's page). However, after transferring back to YouTube, the archives have grown even deeper for the following eight years, once you count the numerous podcasts, streams, and other series that LRR has put out, died, and sometimes revived in the intervening years. Given that they could be streaming a 3-hour-long gaming session on Twitch while also releasing a 1-hour-long podcast and a 15-minute scripted video on YouTube at the same time, the only way you could catch up on everything is to make LRR more than a full-time job. The way it's OK to skip a lot of it is that their content has become so wide-ranging in topics (Magic: The Gathering, Marvel movies, WWE, video games, young adult literature, old 80s sitcom rewatches, a road trip show in the style of Top Gear, a yearly telethon for charity, how to make coffee better, etc.) that you probably aren't interested in everything they do anyway.

Secret Wars (2015) is massive. First, there's the main 8-issue mini-series. Not too bad, but that's just the start. There's also the lead up with The Avengers, New Avengers and Avengers World (20 issues total) and then there's the umbrella titles of Secret Wars: Last Days (9 titles), Battleworld (15 titles) and Warzones! (31 titles!). The best thing about this, though, is that you do not need to read all of them to find out what's going on (the Avengers titles bleed into Secret Wars, but Secret Wars is self-contained) and all of the titles are separate on their own, so you don't have to read A-Force to find out what's going on in The Amazing Spider-Man: Renew Your Vows, for instance.

Survival of the Fittest is a Battle Royale-based roleplay in which a group of high school students is kidnapped and forced to kill each other until only one of them is still alive. It is currently in its fourth round, but the first three versions of the game are still on the forum - good luck reading through the deaths of over 100 characters per game, including a grand total of 274 deaths by the end of v4.

Print comics "win" by decades. If you start reading Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Captain America, etc. where do you start? Origin retellings? After or before Infinite Crisis (whatever that is)? Silver Age? Golden Age? Most of them are also still ongoing, and that's not even counting the spin-offs, team-ups, and guest appearances. This is the reason DC has "Year One" comics and Marvel launched its "Ultimate" line. Batman deserves a special mention for just how prolific the franchise is in all media; his comics have been regularly published since 1939, and he has 19 ongoing comic series total, and their stories often intertwine within themselves and other DC comic series. Then there's 22 oneshot comics, two literary books, two live action tv series, 30 movie serials (over 10 15-minute short subjects each), 8 live action movies (with a 9th one on the way) a CD album, 4 radio shows, 3 manga adaptations, 2 musicals, 3 pinball games, 44 video games (and 11 more with him in supporting or cameo roles), 2 web series, and he has starred in 11 animated series (7 of which give him top billing) and 17 animated movies (12 of which likewise give him top billing) and enough misc. tie in toys and merchandise to fill the Batcave! All this, and the series has been going strong for 75 years, and is showing no signs of stopping. To say the least, Holy Archive Binging, Batman!

Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf:
The series has been running since 2005 and has over 2,000+ episodes spread over 20+ seasons and spinoffs. Put into a marathon, the series would run for upwards of 16 days, or half a month without breaks. Of note, it is the fifth longest-running animated show in the world, right behind Doraemon, 3000 Whys of Blue Cat, Sazae-san, and Sandmannchen.
The first season alone has a whopping 530 episodes.

Similarly The Katzenjammer Kids ran on Sundays between 1897 and 2006, around 109 years, and we can't forget their counterpart The Captain and the Kids which ran from 1914 to 1979.
At least the Katzes just had a daily strip briefly... but in the 1910s.

The Comics Curmudgeon got its start in 2004 and has been updating nearly daily since. And you basically have to read all of it to follow it, as otherwise you'll appear in the middle of a comics storyline (the blog covers a lot of soap opera strips, which have long-running storylines that can run for months) and Josh has a lot of running gags that only make sense if you've been reading since they first came up.

Gold Digger by Fred Perry has 225+ issues of the main series and still going, 6 miniseries side-stories, a number of miscellaneous one-shots, and a three-episode *OAV* made by the artist himself. To make things easier, it often have characters give a refresher at the start of its bite-sized arcs, though if you want to jump in, the first 199 issues were put online for free!

Pokémon: Rise of the Rockets has been running for five years at the time of writing, and as a result has quite a lot of back story to take in—over 150 pages of readable content, in fact. And that's only partially taking into account the other 300+ pages of content that were lost with the BZPower hacking of 2013, covering the story's earliest days and plot arcs. Needless to say, it can be rather difficult to jump into the game.

The Completionist.
Jirard flat out admitted he stopped giving the number episode in the video's title because it was starting to scare potential viewers off. May 2021 brought the 400th episode with Final Fantasy VIII, and that's not counting other video series on the channel like Top Tens, Defend It!, The Hype, and the occasional one off video. Add to that his other channels, and you'll be busy for a while.
For his 100th episode, Jirard released a poster that amounted to a giant checklist of his first 100 games, challenging everyone to complete them all. He released another after his 200th episode. Completing all those games yourself is panic on its own.

The long-running web cartoon Homestar Runner. Heavy on in-jokes, updated nearly every week between 2002 and 2009. The Strong Bad Emails are a start, but those alone have over 200 episodes. Maybe the rather long seemingly indefinite sin hiatus since 2010 isn't a bad thing after all. There is a way you can watch them all in order. But still, DAMN! Look at that list! Adding up all the non-"(N/A)" values, that is 22 hours, 11 minutes and 2 seconds of Flash animation to go through. In 2014, The Brothers Chap have announced that new content is coming. Better prepare for a long hard Archive Binge.

Video Games Awesome! has been recording and uploading full-length, unedited playthroughs of games since at least early 2011. That's only a few years, but each episode can last anywhere from three to five hours, and some games have more than ten episodes apiece. They also average four or five shows a week, so their archive is constantly expanding. Watching all their content from the very beginning requires serious dedication, and would probably take several months. Just glancing at their list of episodes is overwhelming.

The Best Show began in October 2000 as a weekly radio show, The Best Show on WFMU, broadcast from WFMU in Jersey City, New Jersey (and online at wfmu.org), later releasing music-free podcast episodes starting in 2006 and ending in December 2013, totaling over 500 episodes. The show returned in December 2014 as an independently produced, live streaming internet program and podcast (again with the music played over the air removed from most episodes for legal reasons). Average episodes run up to 3 hours, retaining the format it held for the majority of it's run on WFMU. Additionally, a variety of bonus episodes and spin-off shows have been produced concurrent to the main show.

The Wandering Inn is over 10 million words long. To contextualize this, the entire Harry Potter series is just shy of 1.1 million words, and The Wheel of Time series, consisting of 14 books, each a Doorstopper in their own right, clocks in at "just" 4.4 million words. As if having all that to try and catch up on isn't intimidating enough, the author also writes two new chapters a week, typically somewhere between 10-25k words long each, meaning that you've got to read a novella worth or so each week just to avoid falling further behind, nevermind actually catching up.

From the New World of Darkness, the minor gamelines are reasonable; it's the big four - the general "blue book" line, Vampire: The Requiem, Werewolf: The Forsaken and Mage: The Awakening - that induce panic, with Forsaken, the shortest, at 20 and Requiem, the longest, at 40+. The total number of nWOD sourcebooks comes in at about 150 books and counting.

Destroy the Godmodder: You'd think a simple forum game wouldn't have too much, would you? You'd be dead wrong. With a (current) life-span of just over two years, and an average of about 50 posts a day, some of which are over half an hour of reading material, you've got your work cut out for you. All told, there are two completed sessions, one with just over 6000 posts (which can vary in length anywhere from one line to comparable to multiple novel pages), and another with only 1500 posts of similar length, two others are still ongoing, the shorter of which has capped 3000 posts and is still going strong, and the other with over 18 thousand posts (which often have ridiculous amounts of text in them) plus an off-topic thread with roughly 4000 posts of its own. You've got a lot of reading ahead of you.

With each episode being 3-6 minutes (sometimes over that) and it being a weekly show, it has over 200 episodes, a bit daunting for those starting out from the beginning. It concluded in 2020 with around 300 episodes.

Several of the longtime wikis take very long to be read in their entirety, and few (if any) have actually attempted that. Wikipedia, in its English language alone, has more than six million articles as of this writing. The Spanish and German versions are no slouches either. That's not even getting into the total number of pages, which are apparently around forty million.
