I usually prefer shows that don’t have a lot of episodes per season; usually means less filler and more storytelling. I feel like From did it well with its three seasons; some episodes do sometimes feel filler, but they help to build the world and make it feel more lived-in, and also they usually do have a storyline in there that makes the main story move forward.

If you haven’t seen From, then I highly recommend it.

Depends if it is an episodic show or not.

A lot of serialized shows draw out their main story to the point of it becoming boring. More episodes means it is drawn out longer.

But if every episode is a story on their own, there isn't a chance in that.

It’s more of an episodic show, and even the “filler” episodes are usually very interesting and develop characters in a meaningful way.
