    I thought it was a bit weak. Too many current thing jokes. It’ll age as well as attack of the killer app

      Too many current-thing jokes has been an issue in 2/3 of the episodes. Forget aging well; the jokes didn’t even land now. For me, it’s 0-3, and I think I’m going to be dipping out unless I later hear it has a consistent return to form.

    Weakest of the season so far, imo. A Yelp joke in 2023? Surprised they didn’t do a made-up coin name like another user pointed out, using the actual name just immediately dates it (anyone remember the Amazon stock joke?). Good plot idea, kinda meh execution. I would’ve preferred the episode keeping the characters together instead of splitting up, a lot of this show is the dialogue bouncing off one another, but when everyone’s doing their own thing it just devolves into “well this is weird” sort of snarky commentary about the current situation.

    I’m not sure how I feel about the Bitcoin and Etherum jokes, I’m afraid they are too current and won’t age well, much like the Fulu ones.

    It was enjoyable, I laughed a bunch. The ridiculous justification for returning to Old West conditions in 3023 was reasonably clever, as was the 3D standoff/gunfight. I watched too much Archer, though, and got annoyed by the six-guns firing dozens of rounds.

      While I agree, I think this season so far has been meh. Definitely not as good as Comedy Central.

    I thought they would use a fake coin, but I guess mining Bitcoin specifically for a thousand years would explain why they ration a town’s worth of electricity so thoroughly.

    Of course they don’t explain that specifically so I’m just left to assume.

    Finally got to watch it last night. I had a few laughs, but I don’t think it’s going to be a timeless classic.

    “I’m your galoot” had me laughing pretty hard.
