Too many “what got cancelled too soon” questions, what’s a show that went on too long? Hard mode: no The Walking Dead
minus-squareElPussyKangaroo@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2arrow-down4·1 year agoMy rule of thumb for any long show, specifically anime, is that if they have more than 30 episodes per season and have more than 2 seasons at the time of me watching it, I’m out. Unless it’s something cool, I’m out.
minus-squarebeefcat@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·edit-21 year agoEven 30 episodes per season might be pushing it. That is a lot of content to put out in a year, and achieving that usually means sacrificing quality or putting in a bunch of filler. Many of the best anime shows of all time only have 20-30 episodes for their entire run.
