I think that we have to adjust to the lost of innocene attitude of the world. Things move at a faster pace and edgier tone nowadays. Depending on pleasing the buyer of the show, they want massive audience appeal and don't want to wait for a show to grow on you like in the old days. The recognition & desirable appeal has to already be a major selling point of a show to get it on air. And the continuity factor plays a large part in getting the series to stay on air thru 5 to 6 seasons. There has to be room for the characters to mature, alter their destiny, change attitudes, to be killed all for the buyers to see that the show presents lots of story to be told. And the show is only 30 minutes, and so much can only be told in that amount of time. Sometimes, story has to be advanced without every note having been told & we have to wait for explaination somewhere else down the line. For me, making the show an hour long would be heaven; but you know that would take a heck of a prolong campaign of showing our loyalty & dedication to the show for Cartoon Network to give it the EPICNESS & guaranteed place on the network it deserves. WE need to keep the ratings UP!
