6 episodes seasons are a joke. This bs needs to end


Citadel is a fun switch your brain off and watch show. It won't win any awards but it is well acted and has some coherence despite the cheap plot points. I still found it engaging and entertaining for what it is.

I absolutely don't think 6 episodes make it a season. Imo it is 1/3rd of a season and very lazy and bad trend now. Make some small num of episodes, get people to pay for subscription and rinse and repeat cheaply.

Where are the 22 to 24 episode seasons? You have some filler episodes, sure, but a good writer and director will have good character development then.

Successful shows have a lot more episodes and people like content and quality. You can have both. It's not like if you made 23 episodes a seasons, 17 episodes are junk. If it is, then it means the directors amd writers are trash.

I want good more content. Not every ep will be a stunner but with 23 episodes a season, many more will stand out.

Pls stop this nonsense 6 episodes 'seasons' because they are not.

I refuse to support laziness like this any further.

They spent 300 million on those 6 episodes, no way any company in the world will spend over a billion on a +20 episode season... plus it took them 2 years to produce those 6 episodes.

This is something else.

Season 2 from what I've read will be composed of 5 only episodes.

Don't know how many for the announced spinoff though.
