I've always been grumpy about Big Bad plots and season-long story arcs even on other shows. It's just such a trope that everyone's got an arch nemesis who can never be defeated until the final episode of the season (if that). And thus if a show goes on for any length of time, it gets repetitive.
And if a storyline is a dud, you're stuck with it for a whole season.
I've always wished they'd do more stand alone episodes. (I was always rooting for the Monster-of-the-Week plots on X-Files too. The big plot episodes were just confusing and have no re-watch value.)
