I love this series, I loved the one in the 80's too. This season the writing has been slipping. This episode is a great example of that. I don't know if there are new writers or a new showrunner but the writing has been worse then the 80's episodes this season. the show seems to have lost direction and the episodes are becoming pretty cookie cutter.
