And so forth, I’m sure you get the general gist.

Nice one, thank you!

You’re welcome!

Different people like different things and that’s a good thing!

I like short, tightly plotted series that have a story to tell, that tell the story, and then end. 6-8 episodes is about right. What really turned me off to longer series was a combination of 24 (there’s a fistful of episodes in the middle where Bauer’s wife or daughter - I forget which - gets kidnapped, escapes, has amnesia, gets kidnapped again, turns into a goose… I don’t remember all the pointless timewasting filler details, but none of it was relevant to the actual story) and Lost (it became increasingly obvious that they hadn’t actually written the whole story, didn’t know what the fuck was going on, same as the rest of us, and were just making shit up as they went along, and that shit wasn’t very good).

The last line of my comment was me remembering the premise of this thread :)

And you’ve taught your dog to eat Pupperonis with chopsticks?

TV series now have 25 episodes a season.

Fuck no. That’s how you get pointless fucking padding episodes halfway through the season where the plot and the characters just spin their wheels and nothing meaningful happens.

But, obviously what I mean by that is that your way is the right way.

Every PC I’ve ever owned has had some version of vi installed on it pretty much on day one of my owning it.

The important stuff is about crippling regulatory mechanisms, opening up huge government contracts, and dismantling workers rights. Everything else is just smoke and mirrors.
