8 episodes has always been the length for my trial period.

enough time for setup and seeing if the series is actually starting to pick up or stay stagnant.

and it all depends on if the 8th episode gets me to want to continue.

and the 20 episodes thing involving Drive was more meant to say "you shouldn't say the show is getting stale, or doesn't look like it is picking up" at the very least for a 5 episode mark.
