This episode features another in the long line of Dan Harmon taking a pot shot at the TV Industry. Old White Man Says is based on a real twitter feed called Shit My Dad Says which was created by a comedy writer and consisted of the guy just writing down the absurd stuff his dad said. It ended up getting a pretty big follower base and was eventually developed into a sitcom that premiered the night this episode aired and lasted one season.

You think curses revolve around the reactor you happen to be watching react to the one of the many works the actors did? It's more like...YOU are cursed?

I think they say in this episode that Betty White's character was forced to take sabbatical after strangling Jeff in class lol

There's actually a reference to that shot of Troy wearing the Spiderman outfit in Into the Spider Verse!

It's weird bc I was also watching a Community reactor who started S3 right as Michael K Williams died. I think this show is cursed

This was a great way to wrap up the season 1 "cliffhanger". It could've easily devolved into a relationship sitcom, but it was all dealt with in a very Community way. I'm so excited for you two to watch season 2, the greatest single season of any sitcom ever.
