[QUOTE="Maxperson, post: 7572980, member: 23751"] And if you watch the series over multiple seasons, each season tries to top the last in order to keep going, but that tactic only stretches it out a few seasons and then the series dies a usually sudden death with either no ending, or a rushed and crappy ending. This is a False Equivalence. A vampire being more powerful than a zombie, or a dragon being more powerful than a large lizard is not at all the same as one season of a drama trying to outdo the last to stay marketable. C'mon man! You can do better than that. Sure, and there are some people who like how House kept getting more and more ridiculous until at the end, he faked his own death to go riding off into the sunset with his oncologist buddy who had terminal cancer. That he has found people that enjoy ridiculous levels of drama doesn't mean that in general, ridiculous levels of drama are not sustainable. T.V. Dramas routinely die, because of that unsustainability. [/QUOTE]
