Are American tv shows stuck in Act 2 for their entire runtime between season 1 and final season?
Season 1s are great, setup, some payoff, a bit of lead into the overarching story. Then season 2 to X. The heroes win and then lose in the final episode, cliffhanger to next season. People get bored. Final season is announced and they wrap up the show.

"final season is announced and they wrap up the show"
Bro must be from 1995 or some shit. Since when does a show get an actual ending these days?
- Breaking Bad
- Better Call Saul
- Titans
- The Good Place
- Barry
Ted Lasso (announced it would be three seasons at the beginning and stuck with it)
Succession
Even Supernatural has actual ending after 15 seasons
They had two! One at the end of season 5 and then at the end of season 15.
And like every good story oriented cartoon. We're in the actual golden age for cartoons right now and more people need to take advantage.
Owl House got cancelled and had to rush the ending. It was still good though
Indeed, very unfortunate. Amphibia knocked the ending out of the park. So did She-Ra. Gravity Falls and Kipo while I'm at it.
Hot take but so did Star vs the Forces of Evil imo.
Everyone on the fence about any of these mentioned you gotta go in. Banger endings only
Not she ra though. It's monarchist propaganda
I'm not sure what you mean by that, but it's a banger cartoon with amazing characters that comes full circle in such an immensely satisfying way. Top tier animation and writing.
Arrow got an entire season to do nothing but wrap up the show. It was great.
We don't talk about The Flash final season.
