That sounds a lot like some kind of episodic serial.
- sacado2 8y agoActually that's why series on TV are so addictive. They have different plots with different lengths at the same time. Typical schema: one plot episode-length (the case being solved, this week's bad guy), one plot season-length (the season's big bad guy), and one or more character plots (A and B fall in love, and then break up, and then...) that can span anywhere from a few episodes to the whole show. This is addictive like crazy because we have several stories told at once, each with their own succession of rises and falls at different paces.
