      On the other hand that was back when we just expected half of those episodes would be "filler" that wasn't very good that we'd never watch again It becomes embarrassing having to see them all there on the DVDhttps://twitter.com/AngryBlackLady/status/1366582293289050112 …

      They really did used to have 32 episodes per season for shows like Melrose Place. It was madness. Now it’s like “here take 8 tight half hour episodes and we will see you back for season 2 in four years.”

      So in the end, the English TV model wins?

      I remember when I was into House (sigh) Hugh Laurie went on this rant about how a career as a film actor and as a UK TV actor did not prepare him *at all* for US TV Said it was the most grueling schedule he'd ever experienced

      He went off about how all the shit people talk about low-quality American TV wasn't because the typical American actor or director or writer is any less talented -- in fact, he argues they probably have to be more competent on a baseline level just to survive the industry

      But they have to churn out SO MUCH CONTENT that it's just impossible to keep the quality level up A standard hour-long drama like Law and Order has a typical order of, like, 20 episodes per season? TWENTY HOURS of finished footage? (Cut it down to 18 for commercial breaks)

      Meanwhile there's streamers now doing hours of content every single day. Turns out one person with a camera playing video games can fill that niche just as effectively if they have an engaging enough personality.

      Unfortunately, some people seem to be unable to entertain people for that much time every day without accidentally being racist
