    I wonder at what point the writers had so many bad ideas for Queen's Gambit sketches that they realized that THAT was the sketch all along?

      I wouldn't be shocked if it was like a whiteboard meeting where they just brainstormed ideas (and you write all down regardless of quality) and it just became a competition to see how bad they could make one. At the end they just decided that was funnier than actually making any.
