The first series had some great laugh out loud moments, (Xmas special excepted), but for this series it seems the writers have tried to introduce more pathos and navel-gazing. No more physical comedy moments from Greg's buffoonery, now more 'positivity' & reflection. Instead of laughing at a character's predicament, we must now 'feel' for them. Was this supposed to bring more 'depth' to the show? It certainly didn't bring comedy. Whatever the reason - they failed. So now we just get bizarre lonely characters in strange situations, & someone forgot to also make it funny. Stick to the physical comedy, Greg.
