TVOM: "‘Bottle’ episodes are a great opportunity for television shows, young or old: it essentially forces characters to interact with each other on deeper levels than normal, absent of the normal rhythms of moving from location to location as a story progresses. In a bottle episode, the story has to be about the characters: making it about external events and/or people defeats the purpose (at least creatively) of having the episode: there’s no better way to learn about a group of characters than forcing them into a small space together: that is, unless it is The Strain, where the characters are set in stone and bronzed the moment they step on screen, characters whose behavior would be consistently telegraphed, should the writers ever devise a system of writing them consistently."
