*Okay, so the meta reason Ghandi didn't survive in the revived era is pretty well known. But what's the in universe reason he wasn't defrosted? They reference him being in the freezer several times, so everyone knows he's still there, but Candice just...doesn't want to unfreeze him? It's not like he's the most deplorable cloens around with the Bleacher Creatures existing. I thought they were intending to make an actual mystery out of this, but there doesn't seem to be even an attempt at an in universe explanation.
*Why is Cleo's foster mother (and very, very briefly seen one of JFK's foster dads) the same age as everyone else? Well, it's obviously because cartoon. But does anyone else feel like there was some lost potential with the twenty year time skip in the stuff like this? It seems like a complete non issue after the first two episodes. Cleo's foster mother being just as much as a train wreck but now also twenty years older would have been great for the jokes they were going there. Both her patheticness and Cleo's own callousness.

* Why, oh why, did they have to kill Toots in season two? He was a disabled, black, elderly single father, and one of the few foster parents who actually had a decent relationship with his clone child. If anything, they could have just toned down the blind jokes to make him fit the new tone of the series, instead of raising UnfortunateImplications by killing him offscreen and handing Joan off to a new character.

* Why do some clones actually look like teenagers, while others [[YoungerThanTheyLook look like old men?]] Really, it’s hard to buy Thomas Edison’s clone being 16 when he has grey hair and wrinkles, or Moses’ when he has a long grey beard. If it’s to make them more identifiable, they could’ve just been teachers like Eleanor Roosevelt.
