>>104223914>Movies that take years to make are not comparable to television shows which usually air an episode a week while on air, or at least something once every few months. In production they are, but the simple fact is people wait years for movie sequels, and they just get more profitable. Because people don't spend every waking moment waiting. They do other things and then find out there's new content and watch it.
>Because network executives can be stupid and are not infallible. Certainly not stupid enough that after 3 years of viewership metrics they'd continue to see bad numbers and not ever realize what they're doing isn't working. To think, anyone would do this requires far more suspension of disbelief than to think it's working.
>Because people are impatient and get boredMost people simply do not actively wait for new content, and have other things to do with their time, whether it be for a week, a month, or three.
>if something isn't in their mind they move on to other shit.There is no moving on, people watch multiple different shows, they don't need to stop watching SU to watch something else. Especially considering they only need to spend 2 hours a year watching it.
>People get bored of shows even when they're airingBecause they don't enjoy the show, there's little reason to believe anyone randomly stops enjoying a show after going a few months without an episode.
>having a show on hiatus 85% of the year isn't going to help matters.Well, simply put, it isn't going to hurt it either. But in fact, given the show itself, may actually help it, given the timing of the show the current airing format allows arcs that would normally take 6 weeks of airings, to be shown in single week, where they feel more cohesive.
>"Why is the show losing TV ratings SLOWER than most other shows, rather than faster">"Why would another network emulate this with one of their most popular shows (Disney and SvtFoE"You've also ignored these questions.
