It really depends on the type of show.
Drama's or serials should be about 1 hour.
Comedy's should be 30 min.
Kid's shows should be less than 20 minutes.
That's how i'd like it.

I think they should really be 30 minutes for teens to an hour, kids 10-15, and adults, 1-2 hours.

I think that shows should be 45 minutes with ads because a 30 minute show with ads seems too short, and I like to have a little bit longer of a show, but not an hour, as that seems a little too long.

I prefer television shows to be 20 minutes without advertisement breaks because I usually do not have a large attention span for television shows.

I think it depends on what type of show we're talking about. Different shows work better with different time frames.

I prefer the supposed standard of 30 minutes. Though I would prefer it without ads. A perfect medium if you ask me. It is a short enough time that I can justify watching it, but long enough to keep my attention. A bunch of the shows on TV are now barely lasting 18 minutes (30 with ads) and I just cannot stand it. The ads take away from the experience, the shows are not long enough, and I can barely keep interest on them anymore, anyway.

I would also probably go with the standard 30 minutes just because it isnt super long and it will continue to hold my attentionlong enough to keep me interested. Honestly shows or tv in general is better off without 100 lame commercials in between, and this is coming from someone who barely watches tv. A normal show could be 15 minutes long, but with commercials, it ends up being like almost an hour long. 30 minutes is a reasonablebecause its short and snappy and you don't waste that much time with annoying ads and commercials. Good question by the way.

sop281 : I know what you mean. That's why I rarely watch my TV as is.

I generally use Amazon Instant Video or online streaming, nowadays. They both can be hooked up to the TV, and I do so for AIV.

Though, once you start, you'll never want to watch regular TV because you'll get so used to it being ad-free.

EideticMemory : Haha, it has been a while since I watched true TV, actually. The last time I saw a movie on FX with my family or something, so I guess that can't be considered a show, but still. It has been a while. It was littered with ads, and now I am glad that I use my computer and stream the shows online. The majority of what I watch is actually anime and foreign films though, so I am rarely able to use the TV for that, anyway. Ad-block is also a nice thing. I use it unless I really feel like giving support to the sites that I love, unless the ads kill my computer. Siliconera has so many ads that I cannot even run the front page properly without having some serious lag.

I like the 40 minute shows, but sometimes if the story of that episode is really strong then an hour would be welcomed. I like the shows that vary with the time. That way you won't be like, Oh 30 minutes in, here comes the solution to the problem.

I voted for the 42-43 minute option. I like my TV shows to be about that long. However, I like my anime to be about 20-25 minute range, even if I do wish that they would come out more often.

I enjoy 40 to an hour shows but sometimes if it is cartoons or anime I am fine with it being 25 minutes. Kid shows to me should be 30 minutes or 25. Though there is some kid shows that last an hour and a half long.

I have to say it depends on the show, like naruto instead of being 17-30 minutes long i think it should be 45min.-1hour long just my opinion.

I think it depends on the show. Over an hour is perfect for a show like Sherlock, but if an episode of something like  bang theory went on for that long, it would likely stretch itself too thin.
