Why is every episode some weird take on a different genre. We had a B&W Casablanca episode, a puppet episode and now a soap opera episode. We've also had murder mystery's and musicals. Can we just have some less experimental episodes? Some have been okay, or even good, but others have been awful. None have really been great.

Complaining isn't really going to help though I guess as all the episodes have been filmed and the show cancelled anyway.

Also had a "Dude where's my shuttle" episode

The answer requires an essay. But the cruxt of it is that the studios think this is only type of writing that people are willing to watch. They’ve concluded that society is too adhd now to watch long format drama.
