I just finihsed the Candy Killer arc and it feels like we could have left it out and nothing would have changed. It felt a little contrived and I'm not entirely sure why it was kept in. Writing-wise, it’s because they had to validate Nick. In writing, you can’t have unimportant things take up significant time without payoff.

They dropped the triangle into oblivion so they had to fill the void.

As an arc, it was cool, but it would come across like:

Writer 1: Hey, a love triable is cliche.

Writer 2: Umm, I don’t thibk we’ll be able to fit the whole Coven thing in the second half because we’ve been canceled.

Adam and Eddy: How about a mystery killer who offs the Coven and tie this up into a nice, glittery bow?

Writers: Let’s do it!
