Going D&D

1. (noun) - the state of wasting good material from an awe-inspiring, heart tearing, plot heavy show/ story

2. (idiomatic expression) - when a show/ story has the potential to conclude using its rich characters to build intricate plots out of their complex motives, but the writers choose to utilize weak motives for important scenes.
This show is going D&D. They missed an opportunity to give the main character a good reason to drink by the balcony.

What type of motive is Kuvira's during the last two seasons of Legend of Korra?! The writers were going D&D to wrap the show up quickly!
