Yes and no. No particular time slot was conceived of, but I wrote this with an
eye to knowing what happens to series in syndication: they end up being
stripped daily. So I knew it would end up being seen this way, and that was
going to be the preferred way of both watching and writing it. It's when you
see it that way that it actually works best, because the threads in the garment
are pulled closer together, rather than years apart, and you can see the
connections and the patterns more clearly.
