The 1980s
1980s television saw the serialized primetime drama take hold and cable begin to fragment the audience that networks had held uncontested for thirty years.
Korean television
K-dramas are typically told in a single 16-episode season with a definite ending, which gives them a shape closer to a long film than to Western serial TV. Their global streaming reach has made Korean television one of the most influential production cultures anywhere.
