Best, worst, and weirdest? Other thoughts?
Anyway, I was watching the “special episodes” of Euphoria and this crossed my mind. They are almost exclusively extended conversations before 2 characters and I’m very aware of it.

That was when the last season of American Housewife happened, yes? That felt like a fever dream.
New Anna-Kat, new friends, etc. etc.

Didn't a show come out about a friend group that got together over zoom? I know Parks and Rec had a "reunion" of sorts over zoom, but I'm talking about a show that Zoom was part of the show (if that makes sense).

Superstore really acknowledged Covid and even wore masks for at least a few episodes

Both Shameless and It's Always Sunny had episodes with characters using masks and talking about Covid

I was really hoping Curb your Enthusiasm would have episodes about it , but wasn't really mentioned much. Seeing Larry David go off on someone for not social distancing would be gold.

Brooklyn 99 I think wore masks at times and had noticeably fewer people in the bullpen in their last season.
To be honest, I didn't really like when TV shows addressed covid. I took the restrictions very seriously, and I'm watching TV as a distraction from everything else going on. I didn't need to be reminded with what I'm watching, too.

Last Week Tonight, stopped watching during his “void” episodes. He kept his comedy rhythm, so he would pause where the laughs should be….but there’s nothing. He eventually eliminated those pauses and it just became jokes with no pauses.
I’m sure the quality was great as ever, just found it too odd to watch.

Supernatural's finale was impacted really badly by COVID restrictions so it's probably top of my list as "worst"

I remember being at work and there was an episode of SWAT on with the characters discussing overly seriously CDC's covid restrictions. That's a bad show anyway, but it was even more off putting to watch the characters talking about such things.

Last Week Tonight, stopped watching during his “void” episodes. He kept his comedy rhythm, so he would pause where the laughs should be….but there’s nothing. He eventually eliminated those pauses and it just became jokes with no pauses. I’m sure the quality was great as ever, just found it too odd to watch. Everything involving Adam Driver was incredible. Supernatural's finale was impacted really badly by COVID restrictions so it's probably top of my list as "worst" 1 f***ing return! 1 motherf***ing return, and it's the character that always returned. Sam gets married, but we don't even get to see that he married Eileen. There was talk that they wanted a lot of characters to return, one of which was Bela, but COVID f***ed it all up. Just treat the episode before as a finale, especially with the montage. Wrestling without an audience. Enough said. It did give us the Climb the Corporate Ladder Money in the Bank match, so that was good. |

Joe Pera Talks with You had season 3 that they filmed in the teeth of the Pandemic but I don't remember anything overly glaring that seemed to be off about it

The Titus reunion in 2020 was impacted by Covid but you wouldn't have known it was because of Covid.
Tommy, Dave, Erin and Titus shared the scene together but they had Stacy Keach appear via video.
Other than the Keach part, you could have sworn it was just a regular episode with no supporting cast beyond the leads and 1 guest star.
