There was this aussie soap opera called Chances. Basically about a family who win the lottery. A lightly saucy soap, basically.

But, things went off the rails. Bad ratings meant a change in approach. A bunch of characters written out, and a bunch more lewdness.

The plot went from "middle class families," to a new place.

A place in which this normal Aussie family uncovered artifacts from the third reich. Egyptian sun gods. Man eating plants. Laser vampires.

For real, this was actually a 90's Aus soap.

At one point, satan himself, who has taken the earthly form of an Elvis impersonator, offers to cure one characters erectile dysfunction if he'll help him birth an IVF clone of Hitler.

Once it was cancelled, they still had a contract for six episodes. So stuff went OFF THE WALL.

In the final episode, God himself shows up at the library to fix everything.

All I'm saying is, if they wrote in that Trump got the coronavirus he was denying a month before the election, they would have said it was too contrived.
