ONE YEAR LATER posted:

If every minor plot point isn't brought to a satisfying conclusion then every second spent watching this show is wasted. Are we to believe this is some kind of magical fridge that simply made the demdog disappear??

Your username should be an indication of what happened. They did say "ONE MONTH LATER". Presumably, within that time, someone opened the fridge in their house.

Something they haven't really touched upon in this show is the Conservative "Satanic Panic" craze in the 80s where everything dark or weird or offbeat was seen by society as "in league with Satan". It's a surprising omission for such a dark show set in that specific time. D&D in particular was accused of it all the time, and the earliest scenes in the show were the boys playing it - only after which the things they're talking about manifested in reality. Of course it's explained via the lab experiments going too far, but I wonder if there's also an intentional tongue-in-cheek undertone of the show that the kids' "Satanic D&D playing" caused a portal to Hell to open and now evil monsters are pouring out and/or possessing children. Has that idea ever been addressed by the showrunners? I'm almost surprised there isn't a religious character addressing that angle in the show (and probably played by Beth Grant).

Bad Lip Reading's quality dropped off a cliff after they started having characters just say wacky random things when you can't see their faces. Instead of sticking with, you know, lip reading.

haha this guy offscreen is talking about chickens in an airplane wow isn't that random
