This is news, Vincenzo, NEWS!
somebody said this is the golden age of tv in that it's the perfect medium for what could be called the 'maxiseries', multiple-season shows covering continuous storylines. Hill Street Blues and Buffy I think were the first, and still among the best. (Never saw HSB but I'm a total Buffy geek.) GoT and tWD are two classics, as was Breaking Bad.
this format allows character development and complex plots.
apparently multi-season soaps are a staple of Latin-American tv. (would we consider Breaking Bad a soap opera for men?)
to a lesser extent include Gotham and Riverdale. (since they're on network tv I get to watch them). Gotham is continually bloody and gloomy but I still watch. Penguin and Riddler make it worth my while. Riverdale is pretty gloomy too.
