Yeah but there's way more series made now compared to the 00s and 90s when 20 episodes a season was the norm
But I have to seek them out every time I finish one and the majority of them are garbage. Before, if I found a show I liked it would last me a while. I can only go back and watch Star Trek so many times.
I agree, I find browsing for something new all the time tiring. I would prefer a return to 20 episode seasons.
I thinks that's on purpose so they can keep producing this enormous amount of shitty shows to fill their catalog in order to justify higher subscription prices.
Seems like Netflix has resorted to filling these gaps with reality TV and foreign shows like K-dramas but even that is only a temporary solution.
