Why are TV seasons x amount of episodes?

Since on most networks a season runs from September to May, why is a season approximately 22 episodes? Shouldn’t it be around 36 episodes since there is a new episode every week?

Answer #1

It depends on the show. Some have 24, some have 22. Most of the ones I witch have 26, but it depends on how many they have recorded.
