** John Sessions is considered unfunny by many, and Archie Hahn (who was on during the same period) was derided in some quarters for his carrying props around and having an unfair advantage. [[note]]In one early episode, in a game of "In the style of", Sessions announced that he'd be telling a story in the style of ''Literature/TheLordOfTheRings''. One might have thought that his legendary erudition would have delivered a brilliant parody of Tolkien's style. Instead, he did it in the style of a stoned, vacuous hippie raving about ''The Lord of the Rings'', making it clear that Sessions had never actually read the book. This is the kind of thing that put people off about him.[[/note]]

Between the Monica Lewinsky jokes, the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firestone_and_Ford_tire_controversy Firestone tires controversy]], and ''Blair Witch'' and Jar Jar Binks references, it definitely has its dated jokes even though the show overall is still quite hilarious. The UK version has aged even worse, as they occasionally referenced Jimmy Savile, which is probably jarring to most British viewers today, and the few Americans who know who Savile is, and the serious scandal that came out regarding him.
