    Since no one has really answered the question "why" here is my two cents, three reasons:

    1. Salt
    2. The marinating process (12 hour soak in buttermilk, seasonings, and hot sauce)
    3. The top reason. Crispiness. The "dry" batter ends up getting splashes of the marinade in it throughout the day and this is what leads to the "double crunchies" in the batter. (see this recipe for explanation )

    It was a good re-introduction of characters and stuff so I think they are trying to find a new audience as well. Overall much better in my opinion than Enchanted.

    I really wish they'd ditch the president Nixon character. It's kind of played out for me. They had a chance to introduce a new president and make fun of someone much more recent but perhaps they wanted to avoid flaming political people up.

    I think the writing stayed sharp which is what I was worried about. There are some sharp jokes all throughout the episode that were very clever.

    Culex says what? Lol in all seriousness though as long as you stick to the story it stays pretty easy. You may have to grind a few levels here and there but it goes fast.

    and I don’t think there’s anything super frustrating about the game.
