Question

Read the paragraph from the Newsela article "PRO/CON: Binge-Watching" and note the boldface evidence to support the main argument.
Binge-watching creates a sense of community around a show. Experts refer to this community as a "shared cultural space." It's a form of common ground. It allows viewers to discuss and share their enjoyment of a show with everyone from a family member to a coworker to a stranger in line at the supermarket.

The main argument is that binge-watching may lead to positive social connections.

Which answer best uses the evidence to evaluate the main argument?
