But what about the fun of standalone episodes that let characters breathe? Sometimes all plot all the time makes everything feel like homework, doesn't it?

Yeah, standalone episodes are CRUCIAL for character depth. I binged a series recently where the plot-heavy arcs felt exhausting, but the one-off episodes made me care about the characters way more. They let the actors show range without the pressure of advancing some grand narrative.
