It's a polarizing show, like many great shows are. You either like it or hate it. Maybe I like it more because I came to it with such low expectations and it pleasantly surprised me.
dilaceratus....Yes I agree totally that the comedy is not physical like the Three Stooges. The similarity lies more in their collective inanity and getting into silly situations because of their stupidity, and the threesome dynamic. Pee-Wee Herman was simply immature in his own eccentric way, a man-child; the guys of Stella however have a mix of emotionally immature and stupid/silly traits and adult sophistication. It's hard not to laugh at guys who start a bonfire in their apartment so they can roast some weenies, yet run a complex election campaign in which their egos get in the way.
