Yes, 26 episodes is average lenght for many anime series.
Maybe for that reason sometimes few episodes are added to series that could have been shorter (for exaple the first episodes of Trigun are kinda optional and also some Eva episode that isn't in the manga plus other examples I don't want to mention).
I also know some series that are a little longer than 50 episodes, for example One Piece is 52 and it's still an awesome series, if you like the genre.
While for DBZ I have to disagree, once again. I don't think there's so much development in characters and they're kinda each others' repetitions. About villains, I don't think they're so original.
Nothing new comes after Freeza. And Cell is the worst among them IMO.
Not counting DB Gt which is even worse....
