No one wants 11 seasons of the same show, a prequel and a spin-off. Why do some series go on, no end in sight?
The thing about any good story is that it must ultimately end. But the way things are going, on TV and streaming networks, it seems like ends only spawn loose ends. Shows drag on and on.

Ashton Kutcher’s storyline was dragged out for four long seasons in Two and a Half Men.
Medical drama Grey’s Anatomy is in its 20th season and deserves a mercy killing.Two Broke Girls (2011-2017) left the girls penniless for much longer than they needed to be.Orange is the New Black (2013-2019) ended at just the right moment, leaving audiences wanting more.
