With all this talk about the multiverse, I can't help but wonder whether we'll get a tip of the cap to the mycelial network.
- It got briefly mentioned in the last episode, didn't it? Or the one before that? Before whoever brought it up turned around and said something like "on, that's not a thing, forget I said that".
  
  I think that was Wesley on "Prodigy," but it's possible - probable, even - that I'm forgetting something.
Setting up for some live action with a lot more alternate dimension shit, so we get old guest stars back and they get to cash in on nostalgia?

I'd pay. I mean, I won't. But I'd watch.
