Comedy great, not the rest

The comedy was generally really good and not "woke", thank goodness. But there is a lot of annoying music and worse commercials. They definitely should have edited out the latter stuff and replaced it with more comedy. As is, the value for a full credit is questionable.

Just delightful

Good clean comedy. Refreshing in delivery and content. Each remastering segment is clear for the listener.
