Team Britannia, Team America World Police redux.

Inspired by this review of Team America, and comparing it to Rogert Ebert. Both reviews create a paradox on non-contradiction. The editorial and the number of institutions that sneered or the ones that embraced it with the academia's own view.

Despite the vulgarity being on the course with the duo. This has aged generously. If not due to luck, then due to playing the improvisational game of turning what was once a sleeper hit of non-judicial spaces into a cultural touchstone.

So what can I learn? Epistemic luck and being at the right place at the right time is still a thing; you can't count on it though in the studio. Improvisation, planning, overplanning and then the curtailment.

They will always be cheaters and gamers, social media gamers and all that industry plant react stream banality at any polemical tension.

Even now though, these polemists may have become peace-makers or diplomats; I haven't checked on their body of work of the later seasons on an LS mark episode overview.

"I'll promise i will never die" anticlimantic moment.
