    • Goofs
      When Dr. Adrian Mallory and General Mark R. Naird are arguing about whether or not the Post Office still exists, Dr. Mallory asks where Gen. Naird thinks the Space Force got their funding from. The United States Postal Service does not receive any federal funding, relying only on its own sales for revenue.

    7/10
    subtle satire or light irony.
    One might think this episode is ridiculing private sector, namely SpaceX, Virgin Galactic or Blue origin, but this is actually kind of mockering the people and government falling for imagined mix of Elizabeth Holmes and Kylie Jenner fraudery and superficial "influencer" culture. Is it, as a show, overall funny as the "Malcolm in the middle" (i'll pass laughtrack sitcoms on this comparison)? No. It's a subtle satire, just as the rest of the episodes. Not that developed like similar corporate comedy "Better of Ted", but when nothing better comes out, it'll be fine. Series does have some characters development, and continuity. If you take it like this, if you don't need laugh track to point out "funny parts", and don't really expect laughing your ass off, it'll be fine entertainment for lighthearted passing time.
