Ad revenue is one thing, ratings are another and last is storyline. Shows like this know they can build via word of mouth. Breaking Bad did just that. It started off with low ratings then word of mouth built. Having just 10 episodes makes it easy to catch up on for those who are new to it it also allows for them to produce a quality product. They can make 10 slim, trim, high quality episodes that keep the fans wanting more as opposed to 15-20 episodes where half of the episodes are just filler and junk.
