RE: Opinion: Hive Needs Simple, Casual Games

Yeah, I agree with you to a degree. The one thing I like about the shorter seasons is that it allows you to watch more things. Long seasons are a real commitment and you can't always handle more than one or two with a full season like that. Not if you want to have a life anyway. I do agree about the gap in between though. I often forget what happened in the last season when the new one comes out!

That is true. I guess I am just a creature of habit. These days I like to wait until the season is finished and just watch them at my own pace. The truth is, I haven't watched broadcast TV in years so I am not tied into a timeslot. Sometimes we go a couple of weeks without watching the next show so time isn't as much of a problem. We just watch when we can.

I think for me the thing that I don't like about the shorter seasons is that I feel like we don't get enough time to do character building. I mean, sometimes it's ok but other times things seem to progress in a sort of hasty manner. Plus I get really into a character or story and it ends too fast. I guess I am just old fashioned in that way.

Yeah, I can see what you are saying. We watch very little broadcast TV in real time as well. We have YouTube TV, so pretty much everything we watch is via DVR. Plus, my wife usually goes to bed around 7 each night, so staying up to watch a show is never going to happen!

Wow 7pm, that's early! My older sister has always gone to bed around that time as well. Even when we were kids.

We get up at 4 AM to work out each morning, so that has a lot to do with it. I am usually asleep by 9 PM myself through the week.
