I feel kind of the opposite. There are definitely things I miss about episodic TV, and there are some really great single episodes out there, but overall most of the writing was clunky and most of the storytelling was fairly simplistic IMO.

I would like a happy medium, because there absolutely are things I miss about the episodic format. But if it means sacrificing the deft, nuanced writing we get from a lot of modern "high-brow" television (as well as a lot stuff that could maybe be described as "high-brow adjacent"), then that isn't a trade I'm up for.

To me, there's a fundamental difference in regards to episodic and serialized TV, which is: if someone fucks up an episode of an episodic show, you can just skip it. If someone fucks up an episode of a serialized show, it's much harder to just skip it and ignore it and move on to the next one. There's tons of awful Twilight Zone episodes and it literally doesn't matter at all because you can just watch The Monsters Are Due On Maple Street (anthology show, not episodic, but the point is the same).

Ofc that doesn't mean that serialized TV is bad. But I do think it's harder to make well, and imperfections matter a lot more.
