Overturning Roe v Wade was a priority for conservatives for a long time, and the intent to politicize the court and do this was telegraphed for a long time. I think it's coincidental that the episode and overturning the decision happened so closely to one another but these shows are sociopolitical commentary, not surprising that they used this theme as the backdrop for an episode.
