To be fair, most folks today are well past this easy going, gentle humor. That's why not many who try these O.T.R. shows can really appreciate the skill and talent of any series. For me what disappoints most is the uneven quality from show to show. I would think by now the computing skills and cost would be good enough to improve the poor sound of some of these.
