American shows, on average, run for way too long - typically until they fizz out and die. The reason why sitcoms, especially cannot become more sophisticated is because it is not designed with a story arc - its designed for ratings. How I met your mother, a title that implies an arc, is a prime example of a story that should have finished after one or two seasons.
