The problem is it is completely unrelateable to anything IRL.
For instance, IRL friends usually rag on each other pretty hard for laughs. It is common and widespread. BUT, usually the subject of the ragging lasts a short time period before we move on to something else. It just gets stale. So we find something new to rag each other about. It's a wave of up and down. There are also interactions that don't involve ragging, and are completely functional.
To spend every waking moment/interaction over the course of 6? years ragging on each other over the same shite??? What kind of losers do this? Seems like a shitty existence, and is far from funny.
We get it
Taco is dumb
Kevin is a girly man
Ruxin is a tightwad
Andre is weird
The characters are the most 1 dimensional in TV. When all you do is literally say "Taco is dumb" over and over and over it sucks.

I also thought them being that mean to Andre in season 4 and 5 was over the top and flat out cruel.
I mean make fun of the guy but what the show did made it seem like he wasn't even their friend...pretty harsh

I liked the episode last night. Overall, it was average, but still I got some good laughs. I liked the Andre vs Kevin dynamic and "Tefl-Andre."
I agree with most of you and that they need to tone it down. I'd rather it be more like a Seinfeld type show but the guys are in a fantasy league, kind of like the first season. The whole urban golf thing was pretty dumb and too over the top. The same goes for the funeral. I chuckled a little at the solo flash mob, but it was a bit cringeworthy at the same time.
The past couple seasons have still had some great episodes, but always seem to have a couple of duds (see Rafi and Seth Rogan episode...ugh). I wouldn't consider this one either.
