10 seasons? DAMN.

But then again, it's a visual graphic show so there's that.

I feel differently about it. The key visual, as well as the overall subject of the upcoming season (which is "End"), gives me the impression this one's gonna be the last (if not, then one of).

I think you're right, though I hope you're not. I enjoy my mediocre 4 min scary stories.

The show has probably been going on so long because it's short, has practically no animation, and doesn't need complex scripts... i.e. most of the $10 they spend to make a season goes to the ED.

I have just watched ninth season and it was okay. I might watch this one as well.

Very nice, just checked my list and saw I'm done with season 7, pretty surprised I kept up with it this long but its not a bad series at all despite being short.

Will probably binge these 2 seasons left before S10 drops.

Dec 17, 2021 9:33 AM by Ramkec

A whopping 10 seasons....Wow
