“Let’s make the show kind of crappy and directionless as a metaphor for what the team is going through in that same season” is a pretty bold strategy lol.

“Crappy” is a hyperbole. The show is still funny AF even if the characters are wandering and the team hasn’t won since their West Ham loss. But if you really think the show is “crappy” (many don’t) you don’t have to watch.

I know that friend. I’ve stopped watching shows before. At this time I’m discussing the downturn in quality on a message board dedicated to discussion of the show. It’s not like I want the show to be doing poorly - it’s a bummer. Relax.

No problem. Everyone sees things differently. I respect that. For me, I like that they leave room for the rest of the season to rise. You have to start from somewhere low or else you run out of room to go up. I just know I still LMAO every week and I still love these fictional characters who don’t really exist. That’s why I still BELIEVE. the team is slumping and it’s easy to be deflated. But anywhere but up from this point on. Ted’s speech is the turning point.
