@Foreseer44, But it technically is still his fault though as what the creative team came up with was likely a rough outline which they then tasked Ed with making it be episode length. Plus, it's been confirmed that he didn't bother familiarizing himself with any of the past seasons which explains all the continuity errors in his episodes (such as Courtney claiming this was the farthest she made it).

With that said, yes the entire creative team is to blame although more blame should be reserved for the guy whose name appears on-screen as the writer.
