Re: OP

I can see why that would bug you if you like the whole 'everything is connected' type story telling, but for me personally, I love the whole 'monster of the week'. I think that's why I fell out of caring for shows like SPN after season 6 when it tried to include everything and make a 'plot' rather than just MotW.

I would say it's possible to have highly episodic plot but still a cohesive thematic structure, and for developments to culminate without getting into "everything is connected" territory. Personally, "everything is connected" comes off really contrived and smug and cheesy to me, but I still want coherent arcs. moderation, you know?

Like, for all supernatural's faults, the first couple seasons DID have really strong, cohesive throughlines and themes while being bread-and-butter MotW.


(no horse in the race re: Dr. Who, I've never seen it. But it does seem like enough of a franken-franchise that it might be difficult to have that kind of balance.
