[O]ne of the unique parts about the show is that, week to week, a new piece of debris is discovered.
So, Joel has given us this opportunity to kind of come in and discover the debris, but then it really opens it up the rest of the episode.
You can have a case of the week, but you can also have meaningful character development and mythological roll?out over the course of at least this first season.
And it allows us, as partners and the audience, to discover the capabilities, the unique capabilities, that this debris has to offer, how it affects people, how it affects the world, and ultimately how it affects ourselves and our own relationship and the people who discover it.
