Same Old Same Old

I agree with the previous reviewer. One can only take so much on again, off again, stuff. Obviously, there is a lot of witty banter and no one is satisfied. But after a while I started to feel uncomfortable. The little extras are the best. That older married couple in Sam's bathroom is funny. Carla and her kittens. And that great waiter who must feel he is in the Twilight Zone. I hope thing move forward a bit soon.
