A lot of swing and miss gags, but a few gave me a good chuckle. Love the Anastasia bit and "Jackrasp" was funny (I got the sent-off), but many others fell flat. So much potential for a great show; just not gelling.
One thing that I am finding annoying with the series is that it seems scattered instead of linear. The movie more or less followed Mel's vision of evolution. This can't seem to find a path. It's in one time frame, then another, then another. And suddenly, we're back at the cave women.
It was fun to revisit "Hitler on Ice".
Is the series worth viewing? It's MEL BROOKS. There are even parts of "Life Stinks" and "Silent Movie" that are redeeming. It's MEL BROOKS. Of course I am going to watch it all!
