On World Book Day, I just have to remind you about the masterpiece of a series Black Books — the one they went and cancelled, even though the ratings were top-notch.

Just reminding you now, in case you forgot!

Rick and Morty season 8 premieres May 25 at 11pm on Adult Swim.

The Big Bang Theory—a sitcom about brilliant but socially awkward scientists—captured the hearts of audiences worldwide. It has been praised for its witty humor, engaging characters, and unique take on geek culture. The show, which ran for 12 seasons, introduced us to the lovable but often eccentric characters of Leonard, Sheldon, Howard, and Raj. Their antics, ranging from debates over Star Trek to quantum physics, made for a hilarious and endearing formula that fans adored.

Now, fans of the show will get a chance to revisit the quirky world of the gang with the announcement of a new spin-off, titled “Stuart Fails to Save the Universe.” This title strongly hints that the focus will be on Stuart Bloom, the comic book store owner played by Kevin Sussman, who was a fan favorite in the original series. The title suggests that Stuart will take on a central role, and fans are excited to see more of him.

Holy shit, I need to rant about this because it’s driving me insane. Lately, it feels like every new show drops a single episode and then forces you to wait months for the rest.

Who actually enjoys this? A whole week for one episode? That’s an eternity in real life. By the time the next episode airs, I could be a completely different person—new job, new hobbies, maybe even a new brain—and suddenly, I don’t even care about the show anymore.
It’s like some 80-year-old corporate exec is sitting in a boardroom, smashing a big red button labeled "FEED THE MASSES" once a week, doling out TV like it’s fucking rations.

Some more reasons why it sucks:

• You forget the plot (and the whole vibe) between episodes.

• If an episode sucks, you just wasted a week of anticipation for nothing.

It’s like walking out of a movie halfway through and coming back seven days later for the rest. Who does that?

How I cope? I refuse to watch until the entire season is out. I want to enjoy the story properly, on my own time, without this drip-fed nonsense.

Back in the day, TV was just cheap filler for people with nothing better to do—endless soap operas where the most exciting thing that happened in a week was somebody’s amnesia curing or a long-lost twin showing up. Who had time for that?

But now? TV has evolved into something better than movies. We get deeper storytelling (no rushed 2-hour limits), higher production value (some shows look more cinematic than blockbusters), actual character development (instead of cramming arcs into a single film)

Yet studios still release episodes weekly like it’s 1985 and we’re all waiting around for Days of Our Lives. Newsflash: We’re not.
