The series that have lasted Loved it ! RIP Cory Monteith too long and Naya Rivera

ome series are too short, they don’t explore all the potential their universe can offer and finally, they just waste all the possibilities of a good plot. But the opposite is possible too: we all know one series that is too long which disappointed us until the very end because everything was wasted by the scenario and his longevity. But what is the problem with this series that have lasted too long? There are different kinds of “lasted too long”: the intrigue is too used, the plot was extended too much in order to realize a maximum of seasons for profit, the intrigues are repetitive and never afford anything … In this article, we will explain and analyze the reasons why some TV shows are too long. First, some series are released and become an international success story: Riverdale or La Casa de Papel for example. That success is explained by the originality of the plot or the importance of the messages transmitted through the show, as in 13 reasons why. But these series are a good example because they were a huge buzz that the creators used and overexploited. Indeed, creating new seasons for a show must involve a general coherence with the original plot but neither being repetitive. And here is the issue: the show listed upper has one or combined all these difficulties. For example, the Riverdale’s recents seasons don’t match with the previous seasons, so that the viewer is lost and fed up.
the beginning happens to irritate you. A second big mistake, such as Glee did, is the terrible big change of the casting in the middle of the seasons. The departure of the actors caused a big change for the viewers which wasn’t appreciated. Here is the question: should the show continue without the original casting or stop the series ? For the redactors of Zie Plot, having more than 3 actors leaving the show at the same time should be a good reason to stop it. Elite is a good example for that: 3 of the mains characters, and the most appreciated, are leaving the show. The fans are uncertain about the quality of the show without Lucrecia, Carla and Nadia … Season 4 is being produced, we will see if it’s worth it! To finish, the last problem of some series is their longevity. The Young and the Restless, The Bold and the Beautiful, the french show Plus Belle la Vie … These series have more than 20 years, are still being produced and consequently have no interesting intrigues because everything has already been done. And, honestly, who knows perfectly everything of the 12 000 episodes of the Young and the Restless?
To conclude, the end of a show is just as important as the beginning. The most memorable and interesting series are the ones that are breathtaking from A to Z. The ones where the intrigue takes you every minute, that stays in your mind. Of course, the series mentioned above are not bad, we even enjoyed But the intrigue can also be the main them, but we keep bitter memories of problem of a too long series: Pretty our disappointment. Little Liars is a good example of a too long plot, that becomes annoying and by Maxime the atmosphere you liked so much at 11
