Little disappointed I never got a response from the question I asked you, but Disqus seems to be messing up a little bit so that might be it.

What exactly are you saying, "No" to?

What do you mean, "THE" opinion? Do you mean God's opinion? Do you mean the opinion of everyone in the universe?

Interestingly enough, "Caricatures" is exactly the word I've been using when describing my complaints to friends. Glad to know there's others who see the same.

Also, to clarify, my comment about the show going stale isn't because I've watched it more than once, I meant as it progressed into seasons 6 and 7 the humor was old and recycled.

Such delicious irony here. I do appreciate the fact that the author is recognizing the show doing things that other shows have not done (as far as character development). It's really amazing to watch.
