It’s most likely from 1984 because it’s an episode mostly about the Olympics. Donkey Kong debuted in 1982 and that would probably have been too early to feature it on the show in time and 1986 would have been a little late for Donkey Kong.

That said, 1982 is definitely a possibility. Or even a different year if they decided to do an Olympics episode in an off-year. Unfortunately, the website regarding the episode doesn’t say.

Edit: Thanks to rrconkle@lemmy.zip for getting the year right!

    I would have to watch it again, but at the time, it felt like it was going through the motions more than anything.

    Better than the season Harmon wasn’t involved with though.

      I mean - yes. But - even that one was kinda fun in retrospect. Less “soul” but still the people and some good writing. It’s not necessary to skip it, is all I’m saying.

        I wouldn’t skip any of it if I rewatched it. Also, theoretically the movie is going to be shooting soon. They apparently are just trying to work around Donald Glover’s schedule. He apparently will be returning in a major way in the movie!

        So there really will be six seasons and a movie.
