It’s G&K’s rebuttal to all the complaints over the years that Luann was not changing or growing up or picking a major or getting a boyfriend… Mrs. Horner is brought back as a “wise person” to support Luann’s lack of growth.
Comcast is merely bundling some of its networks into a streaming app in order to get more viewers than it can from its flagging cable service. You know, kind of like what everyone else in that space is doing.
Just because Mrs. Horner is old and smiles a lot doesn’t make her wise. She’s full of hooey but she sells it well.
