You got that right, that's no way to run a show even if it's not that unusual to have rotating writers. Even TDI has its slips as you just said, but at least things managed to stay mostly clear and mostly concise. It remained coherent and most if not all of its major plots were addressed and resolved in a way that makes sense and was mostly satisfactory. But now? Why not just write in the opening credits "We Just Didn't Care" and save us the speculation as to what the hell the deal is? Whatever's going on right now is just cancerous. Strictly speaking of the three episodes mentioned in the wiki war, yes SMS above the others is a clear-cut case of virulent bias in the script. Any episode that goes to those lengths to demonize and deconstruct a character can't possibly be anything other than. You're right about the other two, where in those do you get any indication that anyone gave a crap about what they were doing? Nothing in either amounted to anything that meant much later save for the one plot everyone hated which was also lazily handled. I'm very reluctant to call these guys professionals sometimes when they haven't acted as such and when the scripts don't indicate such.

Yeah, clearly the forces behind Wreck-ening have a perverted sense of how comedy works, and what does and does not work as comedy. The "Kids' Show" excuse especially does not work there for the same reasons we've already discussed with the others.

Let's keep them separate them so that the context of each one's faults don't get muddled. Addressing their individual problems is just as vital, if not more vital, as is addressing them together for the triad of tastelessness they are. The horrific amount of bias in SMS just burns me, almost everything there was geared towards the unraveling of one character, like someone on the staff really did have a vendetta against them that played out by their own pen, regardless of what anybody in the crowd felt. Bad enough they insulted the fans, but for all the haters, there was a surprising number of them who refused to rush to its defense or at the least openly acknowledged that in spite of their own feelings, the actions of the episode were unjustified. And it's perfectly justified that you mark Booty-ful as rock bottom, any one of these three firmly cements the bottom of the barrel together or alone. And virtually nobody I have ever met has called this a good episode, and nobody period ever called it one of the best. Wreck this episode all you want, you have 90-99% of the fandom backing you up there, pretty much. Why let them off the hook for any of those things?

Absolutely man, whatever works best. As to when I intend to address SMS upfront........It's only a question of days. Not sure which, but rest assured it will be soon when I do.
