Web Series Today: How Long Should a Web “Season” Be?

Saturday, February 9, 2008

"Roommates had 47 episodes. Quarterlife is up to 27. Prom Queen had 80 episodes, and its sequel Summer Heat had 15. LonelyGirl15 seasons one and two have a whopping combined 427 episodes."

LOL well I think it needs to be taken into consideration that series such as Quarterlife have episodes that are sometimes 15 minutes long. I think LG15's longest video was... 7 or 8 minutes long? And I wonder what video got so many views!? Oh yeah, the one where LG15 sold out.

I think that when looking at that kind of information you need to remember that there may be two groups of people. People who pop in for a few episodes and then move on to other stuff and die hard fans who stick with a series through the long haul. So perhaps the fluctuation is due to on and off again viewers while the number of regular viewers may not change that much. What I mean is if you were to make a chart of just the people who watch a lot of the episodes of a web series the chart may not fluctuate as much.

Duh! 436 videos per season. So far LG115 is the closest but not there yet. They must be afraid.
