The Baptism

The specifics of air travel are outdated - a crazy reminder of pre-9/11 life - but the unease and unhelpfulness of the airline industry is as true as ever. Leads to a brilliantly funny second half of the episode. Cheryl has some outstanding moments in this episode, too.

I came to this imdb episode to check the date of release. You've probably noticed this aired in November of 2001 if you came here for the same reason as me. You're probably wondering - why did they actually end up airing this one? (If it isn't clicking yet 9/11 occurred 2 months before this episode aired) Honestly not super sure how it got through. Obviously they shot and edited this long before release day. But in the end a team decided to air it. I think to a degree it's an interesting time capsule and maybe a relic of a "we're stronger than this" type mentality. Whether or not that is the case, it's an interesting look back into a travel culture that no longer exists in the United States.. also the episode is mid tbh. Okay. I'm bored and writing an imdb note. Bye.
