that is exactly how i feel
keeping all the writers/producers together and happy and in the same groove also very important for consistency.
south park was so bad this season imo.....then i find out one of the matt parker trey stone duo stayed home to raise a new kid, was letting the other guy do more of his work, and it all made more sense to me.
keep the crew.....produce quality and premium content.
quantity over quality is a disease we suffer from now.....and from new Star Wars to almost every good tv show after 3-4 seasons it shows
that is why i liked breaking bad. they had an idea in their head that they were going to stop after they told a certain story. not because the wanted to see how long they could drag out a turd for ratings. see how long they could trick people into some soap opera they had no point of doing other than seeing if they could get you to keep watching it for advertisement money
it was a very rare thing these days.
