The writing's still sharp. It's just that they've shredded the shows.
There are noticeable chunks missing from the episodes, dialogue has been
overdubbed in some cases, and sometimes they couldn't even be bothered to do
that, leaving the actors' lips moving with nothing coming out. I'm still
laughing at what's there...but it's hard to forget what's NOT there when you
can't go more than a few minutes without being very aware that something's
been excised.
