I'm seeing on FB more and more people counting on the changes to the set to revert back in the years to come.
That begs the question though, like Season 33, if they're going to spend time, effort, and certainly money on these changes, only to revert them back in the following years, what's the point of having the changes in the first place?
That said, as I mentioned previously, these changes are so drastic and clearly a lot of effort was put into them, that I really don't see them changing back any time soon. Oscar's can, maybe . . . the return of the construction doors, perhaps . . . but everything else, I have a feeling they'll stick around for a while.
Again, I'm honestly surprised nothing else is in the laundromat by now: in one season, that place was a library and a pet store, and it went back to being the Fix-It-Shop four years after it was changed to the Mail-It-Shop.
EDIT: SST is sharing pics of the new set changes on FB now, and there's one pic that I can't figure out at all:
What is this? Did the street suddenly turn into some kind of of old-timey French bistreaux at one end?
