Which type of circuit, a series circuit or a parallel circuit would allow light bulbs to burn brighter? Why?

In a series string of 60 lights, where if one bulb burns out that light bulb is designed to short out to allow the remaining lights to continue burning, a different design philosophy is employed...

Here the bulbs are designed to burn at a reduced brightness so if a few bulbs burn out the remaining bulbs are not burning at a point beyond their capability....
