I am aware that in the context of the episode this meme is backwards, since we like our Skinner more than "real" Skinner

Oh yeah, I hear ya. 2e was my first DND (though not my first RPG, that was Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay 1e), and I never want to play it again but Planescape still holds a special place in my heart! Fortunately, though, now we can have our nostalgia while playing mechanically better games instead!
Oh yeah, the thing I appreciate most about 2e were the campaign settings. 3e was also pretty great in that regard, but without quite the variety.
To take the rose-tinted glasses off for a bit... yeah, I would rather play mechanically better games. I might dip into 2e or 3e for a short adventure, but if I want to do a campaign, I'd look elsewhere. There are systems that do old-school D&D better, modern D&D better, and other things entirely. Speaking of Planescape, I was thinking of running something like Blades in the Dark, set in Sigil.
