If you compare the running time of a one hour show from the 70's (roughly 46min) to one from today (roughly 37min) then we aren't really watching a one hour show anymore anyway. More like 45min. I am sure in time we will be watching a 30min soap with 30min of commercials.

I've seen a couple of 90 min. episodes and the scenes tend to start with lengthy sequences of stage business, like Louise walking back and forth in the living room arranging things before the doorbell FINALLY rings.
