Does it age well?

Is there anyone here who saw it for the first time some time (15 years or more) after it was first released? Anyone who saw it for the first time in the last 10 years?

If so, does the comedy hold up? I know the homophobia is shocking, but aside from that. Most comedy doesn't age well, but I was wondering about this, cause it was mindblowing when it first came out.

15 years ago? Try 33 years ago. I saw it when it first aired and the only reason it holds up for me is because I saw it back then. Nobody would like it much now in the PC world.
