What do you mean by to fit their format?

I've started watching The OA and it's the first series that I've noticed each episode is a different length. Some episodes are around 30 minutes, others are more than 60.

The OA did the whole "TV series as novel" thing very well. It was very disorienting for me (but in a good way) when the opening credits played almost 60 minutes into the first episode, with about 10 minutes to go.
