Yes! I always have to read recaps or watch recap videos on YouTube. The wait in between shows is honestly getting a little ridiculous, if you ask me. The momentum is killed when we are having to wait well over a year, sometimes even two years, for another season. Take House of the Dragon for example. It just finished airing it's first season, but we aren't getting season 2 until sometime in 2024. It will be almost 2 years before we get another season. The story is fairly simple and easy to follow, but for me to even remotely remember half of what happened, I'm going to have to rewatch or read a bunch of recaps.

On one hand, I feel we can't complain too much because I'd rather have to wait to get another season than just simply not get another season at all. But on the other hand, maybe the long wait time is a huge reason why so many shows get cancelled so easily. By the time another season rolls around, people have forgotten about it and don't care. So people don't watch. You can't make people wait that long and expect them to keep coming back. There is too much TV out there right now. You have to keep the momentum going or people will lose interest and forget.
