the movies are where it's at. it provides the writers with a perfect environment to create a really thought provoking AND entertaining story arc that doesn't have to be chopped up into bite sized 22 minute chunks.

i really think the series should stay off the tv and keep the direct to dvd releases coming.
While I agree that the movies are great, I must disagree that the show wet downhill since it's first cancellation.

I downloaded all of the Season DVDs at once (before I had ever seen the show) and watched them all over the span of a month. I found each episode to be consistently funny and didn't see much of a change stylisticly, or, at all.
