Lazy isn't the right word, but I get Chip's point. Since DPC's a one man show, it's incumbent on him to edit the script down to fighting trim; rendering every single idea he has isn't necessarily optimal. Even if we ignore the time it takes, there's a definite risk of diluting focus or disrupting the the pace of an episode with all the extraneous details. Obviously we won't know if this has happened in Episode 9 until we play it, but it's a very reasonable concern. I much preferred Season 1 to Season 2 - in large part because we focused on the story and character relationships in the former and on the digressions and lewd scenes in the latter. IMHO, obviously.I didn't miss you've said that. I simply don't agree it's "lazy" to put more work into your creation, whether you personally think this additional effort was useful or not.
To quote a classic, "You keep using this word. I don't think it means what you think it means."
So no, DPC isn't lazy, but I do think his ballooning development time is a very real problem in ways beyond mere impatience. Perhaps 'undisciplined' would be a better word?
