(6,261 posts)I used to love that show in its early days. These days it rarely even makes me smile though, on the few occasions that I even catch it. Possibly that might be me losing my sense of humour and becoming mr. Grumpy, or it might be that the show has genuinely gotten less funny since they started taping in front of a live audience. Or possibly it's that I'm so out of touch with popular culture I only recognise who the special guest star is less than 1/2 the time. Or possibly it was more funny in opposition to a Republican in the White House.
Has anyone figured out yet that Charlie Pierce's bluffing stories are always set in Wisconsin?

(6,261 posts)So I take it that my view that the show has gone downhill is thus far a minority opinion, then.
I'm more of a "Says You!" man these days.
