Featured review
Good but does have some issues
I have mixed thoughts on this episode. I like that the makers of the show are experimenting with new themes. I thought it was fun to do the documentary spoof about an Elizabeth Holmes-type character. It was quite good I would say but I was not a fan of the relationship of Burns and Percephonie and there were little things here and there that I was not a fan of. But I liked the big reveal that the whole LifeBoat thing is a fraud, but I would think that more Springfield residents would be suspicious that is a fraud, for example Professer Frink, the chief engineer, wasn't allowed to look in the machine that was being sold. Or Springfield residents are more dumb than I thought... But it was a good episode overall and it is worth a watch.
