I really liked the original series, so when I heard that this was being made, I was excited. I was looking forward to what new things they would come up with. However, I was disappointed because there is so much swearing. There shouldn't be any swearing in this show. It does not add to the comedy. Since this episode was about a comedian, they should have relied more on the type of comedy that Red Skelton or Victor Borge had. Red Skelton did a how one time and at the end of it, he pointed out that everyone had been laughing the whole time and not once had he sunk to using profanity. I felt that all the profanity in this episode really detracted from it. In fact, in the first few minutes they had a line that almost had me shut it off right then and there. I am going to try at least one more episode, but if it is like this one, I will not continue watching this show.
