HIMYM went on two or three seasons too far. So did the Office which should have ended with the departure of Michael Scott.

That's the problem with American shows - they turn a profit, hence there is a disincentive to end them. Contrast the Simpsons with the IT Crowd - public funding reduces the profit motive, so programmes may end on a high.

The Simpsons should have ended 15 years ago.

Some of episodes in recent years have had glimpses of the good years of the simpsons, but not many.

Exact thing that happened to Revenge. Should have been a one season show.
Same with Pretty Little Liars.


Supernatural too, it's on season 9 or 10 and it got terrible after season 5.
Sigh.

Big Bang Theory should have ended around season 5.

Kayleigh..

I hate television shows tbh, can never watch a full season of any of them.:rolleyes:

Doesn't V just stand for the volume of the vessel? Like if the question said 10L vessel you'd put 10 in (divide everything by 10) because you need the answer in m/l not m/10L. If there's no capacity of the vessel given in the question then that means the volume is normal and will just cancel out eachother, or you could simply just put 1 in I.e assume 1 litre vessel?

That was what our Chem teacher used to say, from what I remember anyway it was always
At equilibrium/volume in litres.

Interesting question, the best definition would be that it stands for the volume of the reaction mixture. Think of 7L of aqueous HCl in a 10L container. If you were told there was 2 moles of HCl present, to get the concentration of HCl it would be 2/7 not 2/10. However, if the reaction involved gases, the volume of the reaction mixture and the vessel volume would be the same as the gas would diffuse into the available space.

Macavity.

IT Crowd has 6 episodes a season, similarly, so does Peep Show and Father Ted. I think it's the main reason British sitcoms are so much better than US ones which usually have 20 +. They can filter out a lot of unfunny material.

Macavity.

I think Peep Show is brilliant.

Kevin Hart is the best

Finally someone who agrees with me! If I had to watch another damn episode with a shapeshifter in it I was gonna scream. The French Mistake in season 6 is hysterical.

It's going to have 10 seasons; possibly more. :rolleyes:

The ending of s5 was very final and apparently they were meant to end it there but it got recommissioned. I got to the end of s7 and gave up. So frustrating because I absolutely laaaahved supernatural.

I'm pretty sure I ended after season 5 but I did love it! They need new characters outside the main 3 that they're not gonna kill after 4 episodes. It'd give the show new flavour

It's not particularly funny but most of the references went over my head. I like a lot of his stuff.

It was really weird actually it was all the girls from my year last year and everyone had a set time to get their results like the orals? And we were on the third floor waiting for some reason and
(Did ye ever see the guy in either britain or americas got talent that played music on giant strings attached to the roof?) One of my friends started playing The View From The Afternoon on the strings while we waited and this bald man with glasses who was apparently a teacher got thick at her and I was like "wow girl that was beautiful" and he pushed me down the 3 flights of stairs so I never did get my results :pac::pac:
