Glycogen plot

A smartass way of saying "twisted plot", usually one of exceptional quality.
Named for the fact that glycogen is an alpha glucose polymer with a lot of glycosidic linkage which is NOT between carbons 1 and 4, hence branched ("twisted") as a motherfucker. And a twisted plot is, of course, a highly creative plot of unexpected developments.

The hour-long episodes are better, they take all kinds of exciting turns. They have glycogen plots, one could say.
