It's that time of the year! Show finales are being aired while also battling to stay on air for another season. Many shows are ending this year, two of them being Scandal and New Girl, while there are those shows that are being renewed constantly. Grey's Anatomy was renewed for another season, bringing their season count up to 15, Big Bang Theory has been renewed till 2019 making their season count to 12 and Law and Order: SVU has been on for 19 years.
This is amazing, especially now, because with the rate at which audiences are munching on content and spitting them out, there are still those shows that have resonated enough to last decades. But I don't think this trend is something that we will see with shows created today or in the recent past. There are probably many reasons for it, with the biggest being an influx of streaming platforms + broadcast companies trying to survive the brutal entertainment market, as well as a confusing gamut of content being thrown at audiences. What will be interesting to observe is to see how much longer this long-running shows will last.
