What is a mid season finale?

A mid-season finale is a term used in television to describe the final episode of a television show that airs before the show goes on break for the remainder of the season. This break usually lasts anywhere from several weeks to several months.

Mid-season finales are often used to build suspense and leave viewers on a cliffhanger, which encourages them to tune in for the next season. They are also used to give the show's writers and producers time to develop new storylines and create additional episodes for the second half of the season.

Mid-season finales typically occur around the halfway point of a show's season, but can vary depending on the show's production schedule. They are a popular feature of many television shows, particularly dramas and serialized comedies.
