A well-written, directed, acted, etc and so on “bottle” episode; you will not recognize as a “bottle”. Can I name any episode, in any show/series that fits this? Nope, but I know it’s happened, and I’ve been entertained and more.
It’s one of those “intangible/ineffable” things.
Just make a TV series of adaptions of Pinter plays.
They’re basically all bottles, with a heavy sense of meance and "off"ness.
Oh, and Inside No. 9, which finished last year is all self contained stories with tight cast in often a single set. And it is one of the best pieces of TV ever.
There’s nothing I hate more than a bottle episode.
I can’t watch them, they feel like a total waste of time.

I want a show that’s just bottle episodes. Just all filler.
This is a bad idea, but I want it!
