Here's what I'd like to know. Do they have any data on the optimum length of a plot arc for a shows? There are a number of shows I've gotten hooked and then around about season 5-7 I've dropped because it became obvious they were just milking it and inventing gratuitous plot extensions instead of ending it cleanly.
Some shows can go for really long runs because the plot arcs tend to be 1-3 episodes in length. The Law and Order style of show. Anything that goes multiple seasons in length just seems to lose me after at most 2 plot arcs. Maybe I just get burnt out?
