Film because when I look at multiple seasons of TV shows, I think to myself "ain't nobody got time for that" and don't seek it out (even if I really do have time for that).
My favorite anime is FLCL and a big reason is that it's 6 episodes. I used to love length in video games, but now my thoughts are more along the lines of "brevity is the soul of wit."
I used to go for 360 achievements, but don't really care anymore because I'm not getting an Xbox One for a few years. Plus achievements like Seriously 3.0 can go fudge themselves; I'm not doing that unless I keep playing Gears 3 for five years.
The more I think about it, the more I like the Steam system of achievements where no universal "score" exists. That gives developers the freedom to place as many or as few goals as they want, and lessens players' desire to "catch 'em all." People are more inclined to get achievements and collect Steam cards for the games they really love and eschew the ones they don't.
