    I watched half way, got PTSD from season 10 and put on s1e1 and fell asleep. I've liked this season so far, being fan since literally 1999 (holy shit...) but I couldn't make it through this episode. It was Naturama all over again.

    Was painful. An episode I will never watch again

    Hey, you do you. My days of slamming things I don't like are over. Not everything's made for me and I accept that but there are definitely similartities I can draw between the two. I told my brother that I don't mind the off-the-wall goofy episodes when the What-If machine is involved but the knee-jerk transitions between actual episode and goofiness just isn't for me. Glad there's a new season and that there's an audience for episodes like that though!

    I turned it off halfway through. It was completely rubbish. So bad that it's making me want to NOT rewatch classic episodes.

    If the writers on this are striking for more money, I can only hope they lose their homes to an AI. That also pleasures their wives, since at least one of them seems to have a fetish for cuckoldry.

    It feels like someone made them include at least 4 references to better episodes per episode and don't care if the writing isn't strong enough to hold them all together.

    This is a show now meant to offer dopamine in the form of nostalgia and that's it. It's just giving a junkie their fix and I'm not interested since I'm not an addict.

    Such a fucking shame.
