Episodes that takes place at beaches

Having watched several different anime, I'm starting to notice something that has been rather common: a whole episode dedicated to playing by the beach in the summer with a group of people. This theme has been used too much.

So, why the dislike towards it? Here:

• too common
• always takes place during the summer vacation
• a lot of emphasis on the girl's swimsuit
• the whole episode (and maybe the ones around it) is focused mainly on it
• no meaningful storyline development
• etc.

On top of that, I'm starting to watch more of the more serious ones. Love comedy ones are also fallen out of favor.
