    I think 11 would’ve been a lot better if it had come out in 2021. In 2023 all of the COVID themes were really played out.

    Hopefully 12 wasn’t written 3 years ago.

      That’s a weak defense of the season. The thing that made a lot of the classic episodes classics is that they are more or less timeless. If releasing the episode a year or two later means it’s not going to land well, then they should be rethinking the writing.

      A great example is the iPhone episode. Its a bad episode because the premise was hardly interesting even when it was relevant, and it hasn’t aged well at all.
