** After introducing the show's first spin-off hostesses, Pepper and Messibelle, Season 2 keeps them segregated into their respective segments. They end up lacking interplay with Crafty and Nurse until the season's last half, and they don't quite make the best use of whatever screen time they ''do'' get. Pepper, with her endearing personality, was beloved from the start, but she doesn't receive much development as a character, with some going as far as calling her flat. Messi, meanwhile, stirred some mild controversy; some audiences found her ribaldry unsettling, overbearing, and repetitive, and thus actively dreaded her appearances. Later Season 2 episodes try addressing some of these issues, but Season 3 is where the improvements hit their stride; both Pepper, Messi, and the newly introduced Crystelle are given some layers.

** Season 2 doubles down ''hard'' on its overarching theme of group conflict, and this negatively impacts Crafty and Nurse's friendship. They become more liable to get into increasingly harsh arguments, often for petty or spontaneous reasons. Crafty talks down to Nurse more frequently and deliberately provokes her, and in return, Nurse fires back in kind--not just with her words, but her fists. While their conflict ultimately serves its purpose in the story, some found many of the gags surrounding their bickering ''too'' mean-spirited to be funny, to the point where it's questionable if they even share a friendship at all. The following season sees Crafty and Nurse reevaluate their relationship, and they mutually agree and commit to bettering themselves.

* JerkassWoobie: Crafty is quite a childish, self-absorbed asshole in the series' first two seasons, with his coworkers--Nurse especially--often feeling overwhelmed by his behavior. However, there are hints indicating that he's trying to escape his depression, lack of self-worth, and the lingering emotional wounds from his breakup with Sasha. All of them culminate into Season 3, which sees Crafty acknowledging his escapism and obsession with the past as problems and correcting his behavior in the present. With this additional context, many audiences have found it easy to relate to him and invest themselves in his progress to becoming a better person.
