Reply All is kind of lame since they got bought. It almost seems like some kind of work-to-rule strike. PJ and Alex maybe didn't get paid like the higher-ups got paid?
Eh, mabe they don't quite have the same feel they did when they had more regular, long episodes, but they still made the "Missing Hit" episode after being bought, which was excellent and widely popular. The recent-ish qanon episode was also decent and interesting, IMO.
Yes, those are both good episodes, although they had at least one better Qanon episode before. There are just so many "leave us a message" shows recently. TFA predates the merger, but it too is an example of a "history" episode that plays it too straight: this happened, then this other thing happened. This is not as good as RA's more "mysterious" episodes.
