2-4 is adequate for almost every show
I may be able to see 4 but could not see 2. Atleast not on a good show. I think it would feel way too rushed.
I think a big problem is most shows are written a season at a time. So there is no real end in mind. I do not know if it is possible but writing the show start to finish seems like a good way to keep it from going down hill in later seasons.

As much as I hate it for my favorite shows to have less seasons, sometimes it is better that way. I have a hard time quitting a show if I've been watching it for a few seasons. It sucks to have to sit through those last terrible seasons just to see how it ends. Or to see a show you use to really enjoy just turn to garbage

This is kind of where I'm going with the 100 episodes thing. And it doesn't have to be 100. Whatever the commitment is, 32, 48, whatever. If someone is allowed to plot that out in advance (rough sketch obviously), it can make for tighter story telling.
