No. To repeat what I've said here several times, we would move
501 into 422's slot and make that the cliffhanger ending, then 502
becomes the first episode of season 5, and 422 is the last. So each
season works out to 22 episodes.

They want the money from the commercials, and whatever sells
commercials is fine by them.

Carl...it's a crap shoot. There ain't no logic to explain.
It's a mug's game, and the rules and the money changes day to day, and
I can't figure it out on the best of days.
