Ahh, I see. For me at least, I'd rather a show end on time and end well rather than be drug out or something. Too many shows get ruined that way :/
Well, yes, that's true about dealing with characters being off in books but it's different. With the books they're all written by different authors, so one book may be out of characterization and the next be spot on again. You can really flip flop too much like that with actors and performances. And of course, a character being out of character a lot of times is a matter of the reader/watcher's perception. It's just different for a book than something on screen. I don't know if that explains it well :p
