Funnily enough I ignored it on syndication for years until college then I watched it all in order so that is the only context I had and I was surprised how serialized it was for a weekly 90s sitcom.

Dickie Davies’ World of Sport was the home of professional wrestling on UK TV back in the 70’s and 80’s. The show would report on real sports like Football, Rugby, Cricket, Golf, Formula 1 etc and then would also have a section for professional wrestling but this was the 70’s and no one knew wrestling was fake so it was presented and reported on as a real sport right next to the others.
They would show UK wrestling with famous names like Big Daddy and Giant Haystacks until the appeal of UK wrestling started to wane and they began to show WWF matches.
The first time I ever saw Hulk Hogan was on a match aired on Dickie Davies’ World of Sport.

Yes, there's actually a number of call backs and continued plots, but they're easy to ignore for random episode syndication. It's interesting watching it serially though as there are some fun progressions and such.

Even if it was "random thing from my list" it would have been a bit better. But I agree having it be within a genre from your list would have been the best option. I used Surprise Me once and its selection was poor enough that I never use it again as well. Seems to be the common experience.

It's been slow and buggy for years. Sometimes I'll tune into a channel and there's no sound. Sometimes they'll go to a commercial and come back to the film and it will play the previous 10 minutes. I still use it and think it's decent, but Pluto definitely has some bugs in it that they don't seem to care to fix.

The Challenge literally had multiple seasons of their own contestants going up against professional athletes.

The Neutrals from the Neutral Planet on Futurama. I have no strong feelings one way or the other.

its a different generation bro, there’s tons of great sitcoms that dont constantly degrade women and/or the butt if joke are the people degrading women. like michael scott says a bunch of offensive stuff, but he’s clearly an idiot who means well and the joke is at his expense. just watch those lmao, cant change the shows you watched from 15-20 years ago bro

It's utterly possible that I'm completely out of touch with the world, but I couldn't even make it through 1 episode. When SMG finally showed up, I just felt sad for her.

It kinda won me over at the very end of episode three. Was wondering what possessed Rodrigo Santoro to take such a nothing role and then he destroyed me, had to rewind the scene twice. Interesting spin on the Argent type however this might be Stockholm syndrome scenario. Young cast isn’t impressive so far, SMG TBD, haven’t seen #4, fire and werewolves this unconvincing in the 2020’s is shrinkflation happening in real time on “premium” tv
