This is a great series; absolutely hilarious with the added bonus of some jazz music. The only reason I only gave it four stars overall is because, for some reason I cannot fathom, they've split a six episode series into four chunks with the chapter breaks halfway through the episodes.
How difficult would it have been to have the chapter breaks between each episode, for goodness' sake?
