This is the most meta episode to date and I'm really happy with how it came out, and it's definitely going down as my all time favorite in the modern era. I have gotten more laughs out of this than any of the latest episodes (which have been decent and heartwarming, don't get me wrong! But they were missing witty writing moments that could've elevated the episodes).

This episode has everything I missed about older era episodes. Actually witty and relevant commentary, brilliant satire and parodies on predictable TV tropes, and it never had a single boring moment. Everything was quotable also. And more importantly, out of all the headliner episodes this one was the funniest viewer engagement bait episode by far. Awesome episode overall!

Biggest highlight of the episode for me was the Adventures of Tintin parody. It was my favorite segment of the episode simply because it looked very good and they got the book's character design down so well.

As someone who doesn't rlly like the anthology format episodes of the show past the Fox run, I think this is one of the better ones (even though Reincarnation and the Anthology of Interest episodes from the Fox era are still my personal favorite ones and had the best experimentation). It was mildly entertaining, had fun jokes here and there, and had silly jokes about the time pieces these books take place in.
