Thats one of the things the SAG strike is angry about. Seasons are too damn short and get cancelled way too early.

Yeah, I never really thought about how the shift effects actors too, but Michelle Hurd explaining they've gone from work for most of the year, every year when it was seasonal, to a few months each year in the prestige format was an eye opener.

Personally I am missing longer episodic seasons. I rarely even start shows anymore as I don't want to commit to having to see all of a series of what get as far story wise as the two hour pilot used to.
