> 20 movie-length episodes per season

Is that a typo? Inspector Morse had a total of 33 episodes across 7 seasons and 5 specials. Seasons averaged about 4 eps each.

I stand corrected. There was a time when I watched several shows like Morse (ie, Lewis, Frost, Foyle, Gently, Lynley, Marple, Midsomer) and I suppose it became a bit of a blur. It was a lot of long episodes, but not a lot of episodes (per season).
