The old seasons where that Jake kid was actually a cute and hilarious....well, kid, weren't too bad. And the cliched sex-crazed guy archetype was still tolerable.
Now, the kid is a just an annoying angsty tween with a cracked voice, the charlie guy is an alcoholic womanizer even though HE'S MARRIED, and they're still using the same failure jokes about that other guy. I'm not looking for deeply emotional characters from a stupid comedy show, but SOME character growth is appreciated... no required.
