Gotta agree fully with this.

Remember, not everyone has the time and/or interest in looking this up online. Some people just want to watch the show, and deserve to have the answers they need IN the show. It's one of the basics of (competent) writing. Yeah, leave them wanting more, but do not leave them asking WTF.

People SHOULD be able to just watch the episodes that air, and that SHOULD be enough to understand what is happening on the show. I come to this site for additional things, or to get clarification on something maybe I missed. It should never be neccessary to simply understand the basics of the show.
