Because it’s half of 26? I wonder if that’s around the time when TV shows started having two seasons in the time period that was a single season when I was a kid. The season used to start with autumn, around the third week of September. There would be a little bit of a hiatus as Christmas specials took over in December – yes, December, not necessarily November – then the season would resume shortly before or after New Year’s. Season generally ended in late May or early to mid June. It’s really funny to me to see some new show claim that it’s been on for 10 seasons! when it’s only been on for five years, maybe.
