Raw had 3 hours in 2013, and that was a really good year for the modern product imo

It's not even so much an issue of quality, because I am interested in a lot of this shit that's happening but a lot of it is pretty inconsequential. I mean, the stakes aren't high enough on a weekly basis to have my full interest for the entire 3 hours.

Demo God said:
3 hours isn't a problem if the product is good. We watch 3 hours of classic wrestling every Tuesday, Saturday and Thursday of our own violation.
This, like I said. The weeks Raw are AMAZING I don't mind the 3 hours tbh

I'm not much of a fan of three-hour shows, unless it's completely watchable.

i swear sometimes a 2 hour show doesnt have enough time for everyone, sometimes dynamite feels too short for their roster size

I was also gonna say the same thing because I loved Raws in 2013, but the classic chats seemed like a better argument since it's not even live or current and we choose to spend 3 hours watching it THREE DIFFERENT NIGHTS a week here.

But yeah, 2013 those three hours sometimes felt too little. And SmackDown carried the same stories so it was really 5 hours a week.
