So, you mention the first 6 episodes of 'Free Agents' - so how did you see these before the rest of us?

36 x 50 minute episodes of a 'drama' about a serial killerThat's the context. Not duration, running time or series length. A drama is providing me with more laughs than a comedy.
'Sake
If you want to put it into a like for like context. We can take the first six episodes of Free Agents and compare it to the first six episodes of Pulling (a show very similar in tone, style, cast and production values). Hell, I'll even make the contest more one sided, we can take the first six episodes of Free Agents and put it up against Satan's own spunk puddle - Grownups.
The only comedy / dramadey / light comedy / pile of plop plops that Free Agents is better then is called Being Human on BBC Three. And that ain't saying much.
