One of the most exhausting symptoms of contemporary media illiteracy is the refusal to let a story finish unfolding before declaring that it has failed. A character behaves in a way the audience did not expect, and immediately it becomes “bad writing”, a plot introduces information that appears to contradict what we previously understood, and suddenly “the writers don’t care.” A character regresses, makes a hypocritical choice, repeats an old mistake, or fails to behave according to the little psychological profile someone has constructed for them—and this is treated as proof that the writers have forgotten their own creation. But inconsistency is not always a flaw. sometimes inconsistency is the point. People are inconsistent. They contradict themselves. They believe one thing and do another. they grow and then regress. they behave differently when frightened, grieving, cornered, ashamed, in love, or desperate to survive. a character acting “out of character” may be the story telling you that something has destabilized them. A contradiction may be deliberate misdirection, unreliable narration, incomplete information, dramatic irony, or the first piece of a revelation that has not yet arrived. Sometimes you are supposed to feel that something does not fit—or sometimes the discomfort is evidence that the writing is working. This, of course, does not mean bad writing does not exist, or that every inconsistency will eventually reveal itself as brilliance. Writers make mistakes. stories lose their way. Criticism is often necessary and worthwhile. But criticism also requires thoughtful interpretation, and thoughtful interpretation requires patience.

I say all of this as a writer who taught writing and has spent years studying how stories are constructed. I also have insanely creative peers who work as staff writers on various television shows, and I do not think most viewers (especially those in fandom spaces), fully comprehend how difficult it is to build a television narrative. It is not simply one person sitting alone and deciding what happens next. It involves a writers’ room trying to sustain character arcs across episodes and seasons; network notes, production limitations, actor availability, budgets, episode orders, runtime requirements, continuity, pacing, rewrites, and countless moving pieces the audience will never see. Writers must serve the emotional truth of individual characters while also building an ensemble, advancing the larger plot, planting future developments, and creating episodes that function both independently and as fragments of a much bigger story.

None of this makes television immune to criticism. it does, however, make “the writers don’t care” one of the laziest conclusions a viewer can reach. Most writers care enormously. The fact that you do not yet understand a choice does not mean no thought went into it. The fact that a character disappointed you does not mean the writers betrayed them. The fact that a development unsettled your interpretation does not mean the narrative has contradicted itself.

I was going to have Heinrix disapproving, on behalf of the Inquisition and all, but then I remembered that there is actually a third party that uh... doesn't really want to be there for your sexscapades with the drukhari. Sorry, Dave. Or whatever your name was. I don't suppose you're going to stop being so dead and change the sheets? They're a right mess.

Over at Patreon we take care to hide the bodies after our drukhari boyfriends have been over. Don't look under the rugs over at redbubble, ok?
