Thanks for your thoughtful comment! We all want to see the show do well, and we hope it does.

For example Simpsons is generally believed to have lost quality at about episode 180 (The Principal and the Pauper) That’s a lot more than what would be the 100th episode of Rick & Morty (30 existing + 70 in the contract)
Another concern is the loss of quality by rushing things–but there is no time frame in the contract, in fact I suspect the length of the contract may be more to secure marketing and syndication than to start plopping them out faster.
Another reason to have a big order is to avoid the problem where there is no contract and you lose writing talent during every periodic hiatus.
And of course if quality suffers you stop watching it.
