It's a side effect of streaming. Heavenly seralzed used to have two big drawbacks. If people didn't catch the first few episodes that didn't have a way to get into the story. The story also had to hold peoples interest for a week before the next episode dropped. So only the best seltzer shows lasted.

Now you start the show when you want at the beginning. So instead of making an episode that's entertaining and when next week come around you think it was good last week I'll watch that again you get a show that encourages setting stuff up and the implying it's about be resolved right before the episode end.

It's great for getting you to binge and then getting renewed on a stemmer. Stemming is the best way to watch shows produced for the old weekly broadcast system but not the best environment for developing new shows.

I usually do. It's pretty rough to read it. II had intended to finish this post later but apparently posted it instead of saving the draft.

"What did Autocorrect fumble?" is the new Cockney rhyming slang.
