    hate when shows just keep going and going, which American series far too often do

    Laughs in EastEnders. Or as they say in Australia: Laughs in Neighbours.

      It’s not a uniquely American thing as much as it is a capitalistic thing. As long as a show is getting viewership to be profitable it often gets milked for that profit until it degrades past a point of profitability.
