Just watched episode 1 on this link http://www.videobb.com/watch_video.php?v=ubSZ8MFNGRJq
Pretty pretty pretty disappointing. Seems to be going the way of most comedies that run for a number of years. Instead of developing fresh ideas and new characters they just revert to shock comedy to make up for the lacks of laughs. Hopefully the remainder of the series picks up, but series 7 was hit and miss and best.
That being said it's good to see Leon playing a big part in the opener, and hopefully this continues. The best scene of the episode is where they discuss wearing out Funkhauser's wife's ass. Superb.
