@Zalis:

Your post convinced me to do a little looking around on the anidb calandar, and I want to ask:

Am I the only one that thinks that when it comes to moe and fanservice, there was a much more noticeable increase in such material between 2002 and 2004/2005 area than there was between 2004/2005 and now?

I'm also curious as to whether anyone thinks that factors such as rising production costs and the switch to shorter 12-13 episode runs have an influence... I've noticed that a lot of fanservice series are a) 12-13 episode and b) often come across as quite low budget (Akikan anyone?).

Edit: and by the same token, when was the last time anyone greenlit an 74 episode epic like Monster? You don't see many 50+ episode shows anymore.
