It’s also insane we have gotten to a place with TV shows were 7 episodes a season is wild. We went from 22 a season. Down to 12-13 for game of thrones. And now we are at 7. There has to be more time flushing things out and getting an audience behind all these characters and becoming emotionally invested into the show. You can’t do that with 7 episodes that are roughly around 45 minutes

    It's not just a straight-up hours game though. You can't just put it all together and claim it's one thing. There's a flow to these things. Individual episodes need to have their own arcs. Each episode has to tell its own story. Or at least a coherent piece of the story. I mean you can't just chop a movie up into pieces and call it a good television show. It wouldn't work. So pure hours don't actually mean much.

    alot of shows started doing this, and then the actors got too old(ISAIP,spn) and everyone forgot about the series, and then quality went down as well too.

    and not as bad as orville, 6 years for 3 seasons, and 4th season may not even materialize, because its always in a limbo. one of the leads of orville(the palacki in rosenbaums podcast) said it was insane and too unaffordable to wait that long per season.

    and then the fabled AOT which was almost 10years for 4seasons.

    22 episodes, much of it slop. Shorter runs are more interesting.

    disney had 6, yea they are reducing amount per season, just to save money, cheapasses. INVINCIBLE basically had alot material to go through, they couldnt possibly go through the series with that little episode, it will take AOT-level time period to finish all those arcs.
