I kind of enjoyed the first 5 minutes or so of the episode. Then it just got bad. I've been watching the season hoping the quality might improve and it seems to keep declining. I'm still watching and complaining about, but we're more than half way through the season and have yet to watch a "great" episode.

I feel like they successfully pissed of both ends of the political spectrum while getting little to no good bits in. It just wasnt funny. I was so excited for the new season and have just grown pessimistic of every episode now.

I've actually been enjoying a lot of them after the first episode. But this one felt like a major step down for me.

The whole LaBarbara cheating thing hasn't been funny to me in a long while. And their desire to stay in the middle of the vaccine culture war felt pandering, plus a lot of the jokes have already been done, like the Zoom stuff.

I know it's been done, but I did still get a chuckle at how every person wore their mask differently.
