Stoke the Wild075 || Looking at the Larger NarrativeEver feel like a season of your favorite show hits big up top or finishes real strong, but the rest is a little lackluster? Writing for TV (or anything) is difficult, if it was easy, everyone would be doing it. But that doesn't mean that each season or each episode is a standout hit. This week Nick and Joy discuss the joys of TV filler episodes, what they notice from watching their favorite shows, and how Nick approaches his own storytelling methods.
