That is such a long time to wait for another new episode. I am just courious why the networks are doing this. All the shows now do this. How do you feel about this? Does it turn you off the show when they do this?

If you really like the show I don't think it can turn you off, it make me want to watch even more.

It is just annoying but I guess reruns and breaks will happen. I guess it is the price we pay for having a long uninterupted stretch of new shows.

I know it is such a pain. Usually when the networks do this it is for one of two reasons: 1) They didn't order enough episodes at the beginning of the series and are having to film constantly to try to keep up with the audience demand. 2) They think that other events will detract from their ratings: sweeps, major holidays, spring break, etc. If their target audience has other things to do, the network is afraid they won't know what happened when they come back and will stop watching.

You are probably right about it for this show. Being a new show and all they never know if it is going to last so they probably only make a few of the episodes at a time.

It seems all the shows I watch all go on break at the same time. The 23rd is so far away. I guess it leaves us all to wonder what is going to happen next.

I hate it because by the time they come back I've forgotten stuff. Although some of them do a recap show, but still. What happened to just having one break a year like the good old days? I wonder if this means more shows per year for us to enjoy?

I know I forget things too. It is just not the same when you have to wait so long to watch them again. The reruns are fine but I want the new episodes. It would be nice if there were more for us to see with the new system they have going.

I hate that networks are starting to do that. It gets on my nerves because many times, I forget when the new episodes come on. When they put Heroes on hiatus, I usually watch Supernanny. So at least I'll have something to watch. I watch the CW too and OTH and Supernatural are on haitus and it makes me so mad. There's nothing else to watch..

I forget sometimes when things come back on too. Some channels I only watch for that one certain show only so I do not get that reminder of when the show comes back on. Like I only watch Fox to see House and I missed when that had come back on but not tonight. I have that programed.
