Wikipedia has the same tendency to get insanely detailed snyopses as well. Not sure why this trend exist.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard Feynman
Because fans? :-/
Anyway, I was thinking of something like the first synopses on this page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_The_Venture_Bros._episodes
Looks good, no? A few sentences for each episode, gets the main plot details across, leaves the rest of it for the actual viewing.
(The later ones, like you said, get too long.)
Adult Swim has alright synopses too, although I couldn't find all seasons.
Again, just want to be sure if it's okay to change these. Whoever wrote them seems to have put a lot of work into it, so I feel kinda bad about just deleting everything out of the blue.

I've been doing almost all of them and I'd really prefer they not be deleted... I'll try not to go as crazy in the future with them. Whenever I have down time at work I'll usually rewatch the episodes and write as I go.
I don't really think they're hurting anything as they are, so please just leave them and I'll be more concise headed forward. :)
Seriously, guys, what is it with the insanely long synopses? It's not supposed to be a complete play-by-play of the episode. That's what watching the episode is for. What's the ethiquette here on undoing all of someone's obviously pretty hard work and rewriting these things? (Or possibly just copying it from Adult Swim or Wikipedia or something)?
