    I'm not a big fan of technobabble. It's often just a cheap nonsense answer out of any plot issue the writters have gotten themselves into.

      Technobabble is fine as long as they stick to it. Like if a writer comes up with some mcguffin to get themselves out of a hole, that's totally fine as long as it persists as part of the show/narrative reality

        As long as it is explained coherently and not just to crowd please and cover up a lack of a third act.

        LOST's final seasons were an attempt at crowd pleasing by sorta making all the fan's theory possible, and then bam a Unitarian church is the afterlife. Whatever the fuck that was.

        Was a single one of LOST's technobabble(s) explained?

            Bought a Woot mystery box once and got an Alf mask.

            Worth it.
