    Mystery Box TV Shows

    This week on Loitering we're excitedly talking about a genre of television shows, the mystery box! (Also known as the puzzle box.) We talk about what these shows look and feel like, how they operate, why they are everywhere on TV these days, and why spoilers do or don't matter. We also get on some tangents about TV more generally because hey, we love it. Also we spoil some popular shows, among them some Game of Thrones deaths and the first season of The Good Place, if you haven't seen those and want to keep up the mystery.
