Only as much as the writers can prepare for ahead of time. The ending should always be planned.

5 at most, 3 at best. Seinfeld managed 9 thanks to Jew comedy magic.

it varies by network/production type

if its a 20-something episode per season type of show, tops 3 seasons before it craps out.

if its one of those 8-10 episodes per season shows, 4-5 seasons tops.

3 seasons, if they havent gotten it right by then, then they were never going to.

And on your left folks you'll see a fine specimen of a /tv/ contrarian. This little fella likes to get his kicks by not liking things other people like.

X-Files was solid through the first five seasons.

>>85748868
But then once they find their groove, can't they keep going and then end it when it looks like the next season might go downhill?

>>85748920
6 was good too.

>>85745361
6 seasons and a movie.

>>85745361
It depends on the type of show. comedy is as long as it is consistently good,
Arrested Development 1-3 great, 4 acceptable shit compared the other seasons.
If it is story based then after season 3 things usually take a turn for the worst, Homeland, House of Cards, Game of Thrones all kinda sucked after 3 seasons.

>>85748510
30 Rock got shitty in season 3 but rebounded in season 5
