That actually makes perfect sense (about movies vs. TV), GR. My main gripe was that the producers/writers seem to want to stretch out a series as much as possible, which takes its toll on the storylines. It's hard to make one long, continuous drama, I suppose, so you need to know when to quit. It's like the opposite of premature ejaculation.
English TV series producers have it right. I watched one season (or Series) of The IT Crowd, a British sitcom, and in those scant six episodes were pure hilarity. It looks like it's been on since 2006, and in 4 years, they've only made 24 episodes.
They've got the right idea, I don't understand how a person can burn themselves out on a television series of the same characters/setting and not get sick of it. Oh, hay, my episode of South Park just finished downloading. :FuckYou: Wish I could find some Seinfeld while I'm at it.
