[QUOTE="tommie, post: 197737, member: 370"] Part of me does miss the 90s when we would get 30 episodes+ of Melrose Place and Beverly Hills 90210, with only summer breaks basically. Of course it also means that they ended up plowing through a lot of storylines and inevitably - especially Beverly Hills 90210 - get repetitive ([I]what horrible thing can happen to Kelly Taylor this week?[/I]). I can see both sides of the coin to be honest - on one hand, more is more and I like having something to watch weekly almost all year round. On the other hand, quality can quickly suffer and fatigue can set in for everyone involved - writers, producers and actors get a non-stop work schedule. It's easier to keep up quality if you only produce so many episodes per season and actors won't be as inclined to leave if it only takes up a few months of their year, leaving them open to pursue a movie career or passion projects.
