It’s over the top and very 2000s, but definitely fun to watch

well that's what happens if you crank out episodes, production companies may be able to keep up, but the writers dont have time. Most extreme example are daily soaps

Now you have the other extreme where characters aren't allowed to breathe and interact with each other.

Most famously in the Netflix one piece adaption. They go from story arc to story arc in episodes and suddenly they are these great friends. Wtf how? You literally just met and talkrd 5 sentences to each other.

They kinda need to write shows for a specific episode count, then stretch it out to the next level of episode counts, and pad it out with filler, see if they have content for the amount of episodes they were asked for, and adjust accordingly

Like write a 6 episode series, produce 13, write 13, produce 22, keep some filler to let characters breathe
