Tropers: The Series discussion thread

Of course!

"FATHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEER!!!"

Alright, uhhhh, what will be the plot for the next episode?

Would it be too early for the Halloween one?

I'm afraid so, yes. We could do that after the next episode, if you'd like.

That makes sense.

I'm not sure what to do about this one, though.

How about we do a Very Special Episode about a lot of real stuff?

Like tackling Taco’s alcoholism?

Yeah.

And autism, ADHD, OCD, bullying, etc.?

Could we really handle that? The show is a lot of things, but it's pretty much never serious.

Unlessit's a parody of a very special episode. But that might seem cruel.

We could play it by ear.

You mean with or without the very special episode theme?

Maybe discussion of Playing's clones?

With the special episode.

So, what does everyone think of the episode so far?

S’Alright. I like the madcap antics in this episode, but I don’t think it really has the drive of a great episode. I don’t think it necessarily has to change, but a new kind of episode would be nice to change the pace up.

I agree that some of the recent episodes feel a bit...slow. What exactly do you mean by "a new kind of episode?"

An episode that has a direct objective.

I've been trying to come up with ideas along those lines.

I think I've inadvertently got something of a cryptic mini-story arc going on.

I believe so. I was thinking of starting up a cryptic mini-story arc of my own as well...

I can PM you my idea if you want, to make sure we don't conflict.

Mine probably won't conflict, but why not share our ideas? Go ahead.

I was thinking of doing a mini-arc, where when you apply the Sebald Code to the mini-arc, makes a mini-mini arc.
