The Writ Wit

Episode 108 - Mostly Resolved Endings


Listen Later

In this episode, the two Matts return after a brief hiatus due to increased COVID-19 restrictions in our area, sell plotline seeds that grow into branching plotline plants, release another fairly short episode because recording a bunch together is a lot of work, and talk about endings that are only mostly resolved in the first of our set about resolutions. How can you leave enough stuff dangling for a sequel without comprising the completion of the narrative? Do all endings like this need sequels? How big can these hooks for later installments be? How big of a shock is it that Matt David was the one that did the forced segue joke rather than Matt Donald? We discuss it all, resolving this topic but keeping it open for later installments in the set, and talk about Earth's Children, Watership Down, The Road to El Dorado, and The Avengers.
