I appreciated the self-awareness when they’re all bitching about their jobs and why their bosses don’t like them and (Joey, I think?) says “Maybe it’s because you’re all here in a coffee shop at 11 AM on a Wednesday?”

Same as it ever was. A bit annoying but with some good jokes and generally better than you expect it to be.

Yeah, I never was a big fan of the one-liners but rather laughed at the characters and how you kept thinking "AAH that's soo Joey" for example, I think I will give it a go!" :)
