Do people genuinely like the new stuff? I think it's shite. Everything since the second series is amusing at best. Nothing's as funny as Morris written early Partridge as the sports reporter that was inspired. The Iannucci written series were hilarious but less bizarre.
The books I don't like as they re-hash things that were hilarious in a less hilarious way.
I just find Coogan and whoever he is writing with now aren't that funny. Like The Simpsons is now.
