Is "The Diet" so bad it's off-limits? I think so, but I'd love to see how you'll defend this one.

I consider "The Diet" to be one of the most boring episodes of Gumball, and the weakest one in Season 5 so far. Fat jokes are often lazy, unpleasant and uncreative, and those basically made up the first half of the episode. The second half revolved around Richard being buff and a jerk, and that was it. That was the only joke. Also, what was up with the social media criticism? I'd say the episode felt like it belonged in Season 1, but damn, it barely even belonged in Gumball.
