questionoftheday asks: Is there a series that you think has run too long and just needs to end already? How about a series that you think ended too soon?

My answer: sometimes I wonder what Naruto could've been had Shippuden been a little tighter, if maybe they could have tied things up better and not . . . did what they did lmao. But I'm not too beat up about it, I still enjoy it and it gave me a lot of content to get me through rough times in my life so I appreciate all the work the creators put into it. 

As for "too short" the answer is definitely leverage. As much the creators definitely made the ending the best it could have been, I don't think there's ever too much of a good thing. And holy shit am I super psyched for the reboot.

I always thought Pushing Daisies ended too soon. It only got 2 seasons and no real resolution, though the story is sort of the one where there is no canon solution to the problem. I do think there should be many more episodes of Sherlock - just cause I've fully locked on to Sherlock being AroAce and he is like the only representation of that I connect with that other people recognise in conversation.

As for too long? well if it is too long and boring I tend to just drop the show. Long and interesting is a much rarer combination for me. I must say I dropped Naruto because it disinterested me for too long a stretch, same with Supernatural, though they were both good when they were good....I just couldn't stick through the low points. The Hobbit movies were too long, it could have been two movies rather than four 2+hour long movies.
