Considering the current state of television these days, I much prefer longer seasons. While it does depend on the show, the 22-24 episode per season was honestly perfect, and something I think most took for granted until we didn't have that as the standard anymore. Longer seasons guarantees just more material in general, giving more substance to the story, the characters, allowing the audience to spend time with the way things are unfolding rather than it being a race to binge-watch.

As for "no seasons at all" approach, TTRPG actual play shows like Critical Role definitely apply to this as their campaigns are ongoing and can last for years (each campaign has over 100 episodes, with each episode being around 4 hours long). It only works for this kind of story platform though, as I probably wouldn't have had the energy to continue on with watching such a show otherwise.

In addition to that, Asian dramas often don't have more than one season and their episode order can vary depending. Cdramas now have a max limit of 40 episodes, though previously it had been up to 60 or 70 episodes.
