This is why I stick to Cooking shows on YouTube for dinnertainment.Definitely not going to be a "watch while I am eating" show.
There's actually fifteen seasons. The cast changeovers are usually pretty gradual, so it's not such a big deal most of the time. Thankfully, the writing is more or less consistently solid, which helps smooth things over. That said, I think most (if not all) of the final season's cast is new, so I'm still not sure if I'll watch it or not. I guess it depends on if the writing is still good it not. I've never watched any show that was longer than eight seasons, though, so this is a new experience for me.I'm still on season 1 of ER so it's still quite brilliant to me. Not looking forward to seeing those cast changes down the road. Makes me think I might not last all 13 seasons.
