I think the need to stick to a set number of episodes per series screws things up sometimes.  Imagine that you have a fantastic idea for an anime, but you plot it out an realise you only have enough story for 15 episodes. You then have a choice, do you cram it into 13 and sprint for the finish, or make it a 22-26 and pad it out.


Its a shame that OVAs dont seem to be made as often anymore, in theory it would give you more freedom over episode numbers or content


Sometimes it feels like they are wasting to many episodes on stuff that just shouldn't be that important. I can remember watching Eden of the East when they started of the 'Johnnie Killer' subplot, it seemed to go on for ages. It was fun to watch, but it was eating up episodes that could have been used to make the ending less rushed.
