Except the TV show traditionally exists to get you to watch ads. A network that did what you ask would be a failure, because it would have fewer ad slots to sell.
I love games I can finish and fully digest in a session or two, and I’d prefer a TV show end on a high with more still in the barrel, than fizzle out into drawn-out mediocrity.
Part of it is limited free time around work and general life stuff, but the volume and accessibility of media these days is definitely a factor. I’d be far more inclined to play a 150 hour RPG if I didn’t have dozens of other games I’d like to play.
