But they made a movie episode, in 2019, to try to finally round off the series (all the actors returned). Check it out, if you didn't catch it. It wasn't perfect, obviously, but it was an admirable attempt.

What's funny about this (apart from your excellent joke) is that there are actually a lot of places, where they are a common crop, where bananas are advertised as "boneless". This is because, I believe the bit that connects the banana bunch to the plant (not a tree!) Is sometimes called the "bone" (I believe it's "C" in this image:
