In this episode, we are discussing Ch. 11 & 12 of The Black Bird Oracle by Deborah Harkness. At the top of the episode, we retread a discussion of retcons in fiction (because it has been a while!), characterization, main characters, pacing, and preliminary plot thoughts as we are approximately 1/2 way through the book. I know!
During our chapter discussion, we’re talking about conflict, surprises, climaxes (?), marital strife, and a very confusing night time adventure in the woods.
Well, well, well, here we are with our penultimate discussion of A Discovery of Witches and the All Souls Universe. It’s been quite the journey. We have so loved discussing this TV show with you all, and we know that it will continue to provide joy and delight for many years of re-watches to come.
In this episode we’re back on the trail of the great plot caper! That’s right, team spreadsheet has reunited to bring you the ultimate plot discussion for A Discovery of Witches TV. Cait has tied in this plot discussion to the spreadsheets created for Episode 72 of the podcast (that’s the one for the book trilogy plot discussion). In addition to diving into plots one more time, we are also discussing our ultimate favorites for the TV series: music, costumes, episodes, characters, scenes, and more.

We are so pleased to be here to begin our discussion of the entirety of the TV series A Discovery of Witches. The moment when we saw the series premiere of the series at All Souls Con in 2018 seems both past and present as we end this television journey. Surely some of you can relate to this feeling.
For this episode we are discussing characters and their relationships throughout he series, series-wide themes, and the adaptation and production as a whole. Deepest apologies for the background noise, particularly in Jen’s audio. There was a heat wave and it was sweltering in her office so the window had to be open in order to avoid syncope. It has been edited out as much as possible.

Happy Sunday, Clovers!
Sorry for the brief delay in getting you this episode — sometimes the external world plays tricks with our recording and editing schedule.
Nonetheless — we’re bringing you our first wrap episode for S3 of A Discovery of Witches TV. In today’s episode, we’re talking about character arcs — what makes a good arc, what makes a regressive character arc, and which characters in ADOWTV S3 have the best and most complete character arcs. We’re also discussing some themes (redemption! justice? revenge? eternity! connectedness!) and some of our favorite moments of the final season.
