The vaccine plotline feels so forced to me for some reason. I didn't like this episode, at least the crypto episode was less cringe as it at least had something original

It really feels like these episodes were written in 2020 which already makes them feel dated and played out.

Every “pandemic” episode is uncomfortably played out imo

The only good one was Mythic Quest's

Episodes of shows couldn't be made during the pandemic, so as soon as they were able to film them, they were already far too late. Pandemic episodes at their core are flawed.

And they weren't good to begin with.

I'll admit the 'covid still dragging on a millenium later' was funny, but this just felt like someone failing to mould a story around an idea

Amy saying that the moonlanding was faked was pretty misplaced. It should have been said by Dr Banjo, after that someone could have stated that he lives on the planet of the apes.
