re: #146 Jack Burton in Mactified Forshion

That’s what Discovery is from the 3rd season on. They just need to make it more episodic. Good writers can still do that with season or series long threads.

Why would they need to make it more episodic? Doing away with the magic reset button at the end of episodes and moving to story arcs was a large improvement as TV storytelling improved in general, and missed episodes ceased to be a problem.
