    This episode was so clever and hilarious. This entire show was. Such a missed opportunity.

      And then in 2021, Facebook added an AI image recognition script that identified african males are primates. Yikes... Guess they did the same amount of testing as Veridian!

    My favorite episode in one of my favorite sitcoms. "It gets dark when you leave the room." "How can I stay mad at you when you say things like that..."

    I love how the board was confused when he first brought up that their model would end up employing everyone in the world but, when they say they don’t have the parking they all get it.

      I'd say it reflected the times it was made in. There was a problem with cameras that came with HP computers the year before this episode came out. You were supposed to be able to walk around a room, and the camera was supposed to track you and zoom in on your face. It worked with white people, but not with black people. Cameras work on light, it's just physics.

    Here in the south of the US we still have trouble understanding underlying racism.
    This ep is probably one of the best commentaries on this.

      Stiff competition. After that major writers strike in '06. There was surge in all popular shows, and a spam fest of Pilots. Then there time slot made it hard to keep up with. Then they pulled the ol' Futurama on them. Where a few episodes weren't aired sequence, so it became hard to follow.
