In television, a limited-run series is a program with a predetermined end date. The shortest form is the two-part or three-part "made for television movie." Longer forms include the miniseries and elimination-style reality television game shows, such as dating game shows. The longest form of limited-run series is the telenovela, typically spanning approximately 120 episodes.
Famous quotes containing the word series:
“Autobiography is only to be trusted when it reveals something disgraceful. A man who gives a good account of himself is probably lying, since any life when viewed from the inside is simply a series of defeats.”
—George Orwell (1903–1950)
