Enjoyed it more the second time.
I ended up watching the first two eps again when they aired on CBS. I felt they actually flowed better on tv with commercial breaks. And the little behind the scenes clips added a nice saucy layer of nostalgia. Picked up on a few jokes I missed the first time around. So like the original show, there's still some nice subtlety in the writing. Watched it with my sister and was quite surprised by the aspects of the show she enjoyed. Things I found dull or annoying were quite amusing to her. Always nice to get the perspective of the opposite sex. Actually enjoyed David this time around. His character actually has the most potential to be interesting. I have to assume the actor playing Freddy has mostly done stage work prior to this? He's very shouty and theatrical with all his delivery. I'm sure he'll get a handle on that moving forward. Main thing missing in the show is Frasier's job. I really hope they fill that element in with him teaching the students.
