Is "The League" disappointing anyone else this season?

I feel like they've almost completely abandoned the fantasy football aspect of the show. They are how many weeks are we into the season and they still haven't had Ruxin freak the frick out over the replacement refs Packers-Seahawks? It still has some lulz moments each week.. I just wish they would get pissed/excited about football stuff that has happened this season like they have in the past.

That show is overrated around these parts.

I watched .5 episodes of Wilfred. Show sucks. I don't know anyone that watches it.


Don't hijack my thread.

All league fans here agree with all of this. We pretty much repeat this after each episode this season.

Right here. Worse season by far. There seems to be nothing fantasy related.

Yeah, it has been a bit of a letdown. Taco needs to lose his $$$.

I always thought the League is way overated on this board. A few people were putting it in there top 5 sit coms of all time

I really liked the first 3 seasons. Watched them each 3 times over. But not close to best all time.

Definitely not in the convo for the best of all time. However, I have very much enjoyed the first 3 seasons. I can turn my brain off and laugh A lot of people seem to have something against dumb humor.

i think theyve kind of gotten to that place where they dont know what to do next.

the sad part is, by using the football storylines, they could probably naturally drum up a few funny ideas. the whole show kind of seems stuck in limbo this season - like they hit season 3 and said frick, were still going, what now?!?!?

I am in the minority, but I don't give a shite about the fantasy aspect of the show. With that said... the show hasn't been nearly as funny this season and lately it sits on my DVR for a few days before I get around to watching it.

Don't get me wrong I enjoy it for what it is. I just don't pretend it's some high brow smart comedy. They had people in another thread bashing BMS for being toilet humor and appealing to the low iq population segment; and than saying The League was an intelligent show that made you think

I could care less about the fantasy aspect of it. Yes, i would have liked to have seen Ruxin melt down over the replacement refs, but I rarely ever laugh at the actual fantasy stuff (which doesn't include making jokes about the Shiva).

I couldn't care less if they don't show them arguing for 10 minutes over what Frank Gore will do.

I also dont get the outrage over the fantasy football lacking. Its nice to have but thats not what makes the show

I would like more Shiva. I like me some Jenny, but Shiva is the hotness. And Ruxin's wife, too...they need to get involved. Just put them on the screen...they don't even have to have lines.

Definitely needs to go back to its roots. The last episode sucked hard
