Also, 13 episodes is a typical season for an animated series.

Actually, it depends on several factors: the type of series, production costs per episode, the numbering system used for that show's production and whether the producers are aiming for syndication (which requires 65 episodes).

And long individual seasons are not a recent trend, either. Check out the episode counts for the first seasons of some of the 80's cartoons to see what I mean.
