Philly’s game not a bottle episode, kind of the opposite.

My identification with Jacob increased with the reveal that he enjoys reacting to SCOTUS decisions online. SCOTUS is a special interest of mine, though my comments have never gone viral on the socials. I mostly promote commentary by scholars and journalists. (And I have never tried to create a group chat about it with people I know IRL.)

I do like the mall set. It’s ridiculous but in a way sitcoms should be in their fifth season. On the other hand I really disliked the Halloween camping episode. It probably says something about me that I liked one of these plots and not the other. But is it anything deeper than I’ve spent a lot more time in city parks than malls and therefore have a harder time suspending my disbelief with that one?

I am really glad that they found a reoccurring role for Khandi Alexander. I enjoy her presence, though I didn’t like the jokes they gave Mr Johnson during her introduction.

I don’t want to say it’s Abbott Elementary’s fault, but I feel like my ability to find humor in doomsday preppers has decreased in the past five years. (I don’t remember ever really finding preppers funny, but I at least felt willing to try and see the humor in it. I don’t feel that willingness anymore.)

I feel like the “Melissa Schemmenti’s former student is a convicted fraudster” was written for me personally.
