@alwaysAMC Happy Anniversary! I just realized I'm coming up to my one-year anniversary here, too! April 5. Wow, I can't believe it. I have to say, I'm REALLY looking forward to your reactions to the San Christohell story.
I thought it was 6 months. (Or is that DOOL's schedule?)
As you point out, it makes it really hard to pivot when something isn't working out. OR, to take advantage of something that takes off that they weren't expecting. For instance, I wouldn't have married Andre and Dani off so fast.
I understand the financial reasons for it, but it does undermine one of the advantages of soap storytelling, which is the ability to try things out without committing to it until you're sure it's clicking.
When you watch old episodes of GL you see lots of chem testing. They even chem tested Alan and Sara McIntyre. They were chem testing him with Rita for quite some time before that storyline took off. The same with Mike, although after Elizabeth they never found a strong pairing for him.
