I thought the main reason it took so long to get to plot points was because they weren't used to the animating and the schedule; they were too pressed for time and episodes ended up getting cut up and spread out so that the animators had time to finish (or, mostly finish) the scene. That's why the early stuff is really short episodes, whereas V3 is much longer in comparison.
