Luckily (so far) koth has been making them as full seasons, then just cutting them in half and putting them out. Season 15 has been ready to go since before Season 14 “aired” (a phrase which I just now realized has become an anachronism.) Afaik, they’ve been working on seasons 16 and 17 which they have already been renewed for so hopefully it won’t be 5 years lol!
But they will all be 10 eps, unfortunately. I bet it’s a demand of the streaming services or some such nonsense, easier to cancel I guess.
I don’t mind it as much for tight story forward shows, not that more episodes wouldn’t be bad in some cases, but usually 10 episodes is the right amount to tell a story.
Shows they are more monster of the week, or plot of the week, like King of the Hill or Star Trek, they would benefit by having more episodes.
Shows that are telling a season long story, like Severance or Only Murders in the Building, they work better with a 10 episode run.
And I appreciate shows that don’t stretch to fit the 10 episode run. A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms was perfect at 6 episodes. I just watched The Miniature Wife and by episode 6 I was disappointed to find out it had been stretched to 10 episodes. They probably should have done it in 6 or 8.
I hate that most shows are starting to adopt 10-episode seasons
10-episode seasons, with 2-5 years between seasons.
Still waiting on Batman: Caped Crusader season 2
