Reply to comment by blatantninja in TIL During the 20th century TV series that reached 100 episodes were generally preferred for syndication, since that meant stations could run 20 weeks of programming without repeating a story. In recent years that number has fallen to 88 episodes. by UndyingCorn
Idk if this is the exact same phenomena but studios nowadays don’t like running too many seasons bc the creators start to ask for raises. If you cancel everything after a season or two, you can keep wages lower.

I wonder how much of whats wrong with our politics comes down to old people having nothing better to do. The only people who can afford to spend their entire day becoming a local government nuisance are those who don't work.
