Day Two

I’ve written today. A post I intended to publish for today’s entry. But, unsurprisingly, it’s turned into a longer piece than planned, so you get this. Filler.

Filler TV episodes were great in 90s sitcoms. Often unconnected to the overall plot, only sometimes minimally connected, they provided breathing room for plot and audiences alike. With 20+ episodes PER SEASON in those glorious, golden days, you’d get a good 2-4 filler episodes a season.

The One Where No One’s Ready from Friends is a prime example. Excellent comedy, and you could know nothing about the show before or after to enjoy it. And, if you missed it, you didn’t miss “story.” This episode is also known as a “bottle episode” (a term I learned from Community).

This post is really less filler than it is bottle. Really, more stream of consciousness than anything else.

Hm, what a journey to get here 😂

Until next time,
