expositionator-y

adj. 1) Take terminator-y. 2) Replace the gore and violence with brain-melting blah blah blah. 3) Stir till yeast is dissolved.

Real citation: "Ahhhh. I really liked this episode. The only parts that rang false were in the Tyllium refinery with the kids. I know, their little bits of a story were featured to make a point and to push the plot forward, but there was something kind of Expositionator-y about them that didn't quite work for me."

Made-up citation: "The Bible's a little expositionator-y for me. Hasn't God heard of 'show, don't tell'?"
