Valutazione di lennholm82
This episode basically has the exact same plot as the previous episode but with baseball instead of American football.
That said, the jokes are better than in the previous episode and the subject matter is the less dumb one of the two US exclusive sports.
Apparently, the episode ties into real-world events that were ongoing at the time it was produced, so all in all it seems to have more of an excuse for existing than the episode that precedes it. I just find it baffling that they put these two very similar episodes back to back instead of spacing them out more. Then again, unlike contemporary legendary sitcoms like Seinfeld and The Simpsons, Married... with Children was often very sloppily put together in regards to writing and production, the show lived and died entirely by its side-splitting jokes.

It's highly ironic how the plot of this episode is the same as one of the plot lines in Star Trek: Discovery's first season...
In this episode, the show abandons all pretences of being a comedy. I've been going back and forth on whether I think the humour adds to the show or if it would be better without it all together (just like the show itself has seemed unsure of exactly what it wants to be) but after this episode it's clear to me that the show absolutely NEEDS the comedic aspect. Without it, it becomes all the more obvious just how much of an unoriginal clone of Star Trek: The Next Generation it is. Nowhere is this more apparent than with Captain Mercer. Without the jokes, he's nothing more than Seth MacFarlane cosplaying as Captain Kirk (I guess Seth prefers to see himself as the dashing and daring Kirk over the bald and "boring" Picard) and I just can't take his botoxed face seriously.
With all that said, this episode and the show overall is still enjoyable to watch and I definitely prefer it to Star Trek: Discovery, which I gave up on in its third season because watching the next episode increasingly felt like a chore that I had to force myself to do. With The Orville, I'm still looking forward to watch each new episode. It is, however, far from the masterpiece that all the 'Disco' haters make it out to be.
P. S. The ending of this episode was pure cheese.
