This series basically continues a trend that started in season 4. Early Peep Show was so good because it was so believable and natural. The comedy came from the ridiculous lines and internal thoughts that had nothing to do with the plot.
Now it tries to make the main comedy from the plot.
Obviously it is still a good show and has some great lines, but some of it is becoming a bit sitcommy and over the top: e.g Johnson's speech at Gerard's funeral? He would never say that!
Speaking of Johnson, I wish they'd done something about him relapsing into alcoholism as he seemed to be in the last ep of season 7. That would have been great. Maybe the actor wasn't available for much time. JLB or something similar should return if only for more Johnson
And since when was Dobby such a hipster with cool friends? The writers seem to have forgotten the character a bit. In the 5th season she was basically just weird, and almost as much of a loser as Mark
