It's much easier to remember a season when it runs for 22-24 episodes between September - May than it is to remember a 10 episode season that you watched in less than a month.

It used to be that by the time a show had ended, there was pretty much just 4 more months until it kicked back up again, for the most part.

Now, you can binge an entire season and you might not get another one until another year and a half. This coupled with the fact that there are so many shows like that out there, that it's hard to remember anything but the most important details.

Even with the 22 episode shows, as time goes on, so does the memory fade (in general). I watched every episode of Smallville for 10 years and even sometimes I'll read recaps of some of their most insane episodes and still not remember there was an Egyptian curse episode or a vampire episode or that Amy Adams could unhinge her jaw like a snake in one episode.
