The first few times I saw it, I thought it was the most boring thing I'd ever seen.
A year or so later, I saw it again, and was like, "No, wait. This is one of the most hilarious things to ever be on television." Everyone I've shown it (read as: sat down and forced to look past the dry patches to see the brilliance of the show) has either loved it or merely laughed their **beast** off at it.
I don't feel like the last episodes were any worse than the rest. Only problem is it did end in the perfect way, or I'd be all for some resurrection of the show.
Animal crackers in my soup. Monkeys and rabbits loop de loop. Gosh, oh gee! Don't I have fun? Swallowing animals, one by one.
