Got any examples? 

I think it’s the opposite…waiting two years is what they believe is the sweet spot so people mistake effort put in by waiting for liking the next season…they’re just doing what gets the most eyes on the shows.

The formula is currently the least possible amount of episodes over the longest possible time. Won’t change until people become less instead of more interested after 2 years.

I wonder if Stranger Things will change anything…they waited so long in between seasons they have 30 year old high school kids, and nobody I know is up to date on the show.
