A key figure behind Star Trek's classic era has likened the shortened seasons of modern TV to the equivalent of a Tinder relationship, and said he hoped the sci-fi franchise would return to 22-episode seasons.
Going to be completely honest, Dexter isn’t worth finishing. The first few seasons are fun, but the show struggles to actually go anywhere until the final season, at which point it goes straight into a ditch. I think I lost any lingering respect for the show around season 6 and kept watching due to sunk cost fallacy and nostalgia for the first couple seasons. I haven’t watched the spinoffs, but the only one that’s finished so far apparently followed the same trajectory over much fewer episodes.
It’s on my watch list but considering I haven’t finished Dexter… i might see it in 2050.

And I think that’s why I haven’t finished it tbh. I lost the drive to get there.
i heard from others, that it fell of before s4, they probably ran out of material to draw from. i heard some of the new series dint do so well.
