>That's why I always think of Season 2 fondly: it was its own thing, and it looked at its universe at face value instead of having to continually crank up the notch for the sake of comedy. I just like the subtle, low-key vibe of everything, especially since the show is practically driven by escalation and insanity nowadays, something that I certainly appreciate but that slightly limits the general outcome.

Agreed. Season 2 is what got me into the show, I suppose.
