this was your mistake.

Some anime are just not suitable to be marathoned. Slice of life, or whatever you want to label idol shows as, often has repetitive jokes and cuteness. That's fine if you only watch one episode a week thinking, "haha, as expected of Honoka, so cute."
If you watch it in one go you'll soon roll your eyes, "Oh god, they just made the same joke 5 times within barely more than an hour, I get it already!"

Lucky Star, NNB, Hidasketch, Aria, Windy Tales are very easy to marathon, because unlike Love Live they're good

They are still more fun if you don't

The only thing I can agree with you on is that the drama is very forced and ridiculous at some points (like having all the people shovelling snow from the school to the final stage), but, and I know this is going to sound bad, you're not supposed to watch everything for the plot. Love Live it's about the characters' lives and interactions. It's overly dramatized because Japan loves that, apparently.

Also, there's a lot of extra material if you want to dig out, the series is basically a comercial for the project.
