See How They Run: wasted potential
Manage episode 404968119 series 3334607
A comedic take on a murder mystery had so much potential, but unfortunately, the creators of SEE HOW THEY RUN wasted it with what can only be described as lazy writing and lazy editing. This is what happens when the writers of murder mysteries aren't also superfans of the genre, or when they try to cut corners. This week, Valerie discusses the unfortunate skinny wrist reveal, and Melanie walks us through all the clues and red herrings. Do you agree with their analysis?
"If you're serious about getting published, be honest with yourself about the gaps in your knowledge. We all have them. It's okay." Valerie Francis
