Seeing all of that "2020s stuff" in the poster is giving me really bad vibes. It gives me the same feeling as the Futurama cryptocurrency episode, where the commentary was late to the punch and delivered by writers either out of step with the subject or with the original show. I know KOTH was a premise about an old fashioned guy dealing with encroaching modern times, but it was written genuinely. The poster just cramming so many things in at once worries me that will trying too aggressively recreate that original premise by slapping the most bleeding edge topics into it.

When the writers of the show are now those that grew up casually watching the original and just slap together half remembered high notes and memes
