Yes, and also, most of the new shows, it seems like the showrunners don't conceptualize them as episodic TV shows. They conceptualize them as big long stories that happen to be broken up into episodes and each episode is like a chapter in a book.

And the thing is, pretty much all of the classic prestige TV shows, the people making them had extensive backgrounds working in episodic TV. David Chase started on Kolchak The Night Stalker and Rockford Files, David Simon did Homicide Life On the Street which was a procedural, Tom Fontana was on St. Elsewhere and Homicide, David Milch was on Hill Street Blues and did NYPD Blue, Matt Weiner was on Becker and Andy Richter Controls the Universe, Vince Gilligan was on X-Files. All of those people had extensive experience in writing and formatting TV episodes and working with TV as a medium. And it turns out that's very valuable experience to have.
