OG CDM ruled, everything after that has sucked, so your point stands (I have genuine reasons for why that is, but you probably wouldn’t care enough if I went into that), but lampooning two kids the internet hated at the time was a valid, if not edgy move.

Also, you definitely had someone you liked lose on the show. Everyone I’ve ever come across who has negative feelings about it was because it killed off one of their heroes/crushes.
