It's like "Seinfeld" except everyone is George (and it's R-rated, and there's no studio audience, and there's no commercials). That's exactly what I thought, and it's definitely an uncomfortable thing to watch, yet I still find it funny, often hysterically so. I'd like to say that it needs the momentum of watching a bunch of episodes, because of the story arcs and running gags (or at least motifs), but actually I was hooked from the first episode I saw. (I loved the faux-documentary it was based on, too, but it's a different enough thing that I don't consider that part of the series proper.) I will say that the episodes generally have clever endings (as did "Seinfeld"), so you should probably watch one all the way through to get to the punchline. Or not. De gustibus non est disputamundo or whatever.
