second hand is about the right distance for drama

So disappointed to remember there's a two-week hiatus in Wax's stupid show (911), so there's a whole nother week before she can tell me whether the character really died and how the melodramatic parts of fandom reacted to that.

I wonder if creators/platforms do this on purpose (cliffhanging their audience right before a hiatus). I remember a comic I was following where -- coincidentally or deliberately? -- it went on hiatus right after cliffhanging the main character being strangled while bleeding out.

They must know in advance when they're making tv, right? So it's hard to imagine how it could not be on purpose!

Melodramatic? MELODRAMATIC?!!

Look my widow weeds and ashes are perfectly appropriate, including the in memorium billboard….

I do draw a line at the crowdfunded assassination of the producer.

That would be unlikely to help, anyway.
