Tag: Secret Invasion

   Unfortunately, that’s all I see when I watch Secret Invasion. I see a writer who can write scripts—who clearly can write scripts as the actor’s wouldn’t be nearly as good as they are otherwise—but, also a writer who didn’t plan properly; who is trying so hard to fit into the genre that they’re writing in (spy dramas/action) that they’re losing audience interest and sense in the process. I see a pantser (a writer who doesn’t plan before writing) who isn’t confident enough to be a pantser. Sometimes being a pantser works. Sometimes, with something that’s less known by others and is more connected to you—or is something you’ve spent a lot of time with in your head (essentially partly planned but not written down)—you can get away with pantsing. But this writer, at least for this series, isn’t succeeding without a plan… and everything is coming across wrong. Sometimes even in a way that I can’t even describe why it feels wrong.
