Are American tv shows stuck in Act 2 for their entire runtime between season 1 and final season? - eviltoast

Season 1s are great, setup, some payoff, a bit of lead into the overarching story. Then season 2 to X. The heroes win and then lose in the final episode, cliffhanger to next season. People get bored. Final season is announced and they wrap up the show.

    And like every good story oriented cartoon. We’re in the actual golden age for cartoons right now and more people need to take advantage.

        Indeed, very unfortunate. Amphibia knocked the ending out of the park. So did She-Ra. Gravity Falls and Kipo while I’m at it.

        Hot take but so did Star vs the Forces of Evil imo.

        Everyone on the fence about any of these mentioned you gotta go in. Banger endings only

            I’m not sure what you mean by that, but it’s a banger cartoon with amazing characters that comes full circle in such an immensely satisfying way. Top tier animation and writing.
