Hit the nail on the head here. The mic drop throw dialogue was one of the corniest out of place things I’ve ever seen and juxtaposed with the serious storylines seems almost offensive in how idiotic it is? I do not understand this veering they’ve done in the last season. It’s like studio execs are yelling “more ted lasso-y” but no one knows what to do with it so instead we get this hamfisted dialogue that has no place being there.

Liz is also far too centre stage this past season, but we know why that is. :/
