The link discusses shows that get cancelled early before a satisfactory resolution due to bad ratings. This is reasonable as usually they get cancelled because they are bad. The other side of this is shows that run too long due to the inertia of their initial success. I am now unwilling to start watching a popular a TV show because it won’t end until it turns bad. This might be 10+ seasons and there is no prize for watching it all. I am fundamentally tired of being told stories. Nowadays I just stick to movies: The time investment is minimal, and if you are willing to read subtitles there is lot of them.
