  1. @alice Side note: I think it took me more than a year to realize the pun in this episode. She's dressed as a scarecrow, i.e., a straw man, but since this show only uses the gender-neutral "berry" to refer to all people, it would be called a "straw berry". They don't mention this in the episode at all, but it's there staring at you the whole time. Quite clever.

  2. @alice The newer show from 2021 sidestepped the issue by referring to people as "berries" instead. I guess it was their way of portraying trans and nonbinary characters without triggering conservative parents too much, since it's still a corporate IP. But it's a lot more progressive and inclusive than the previous reboots, for sure.
