I watched them out of order and got so much more out of s1. Both are good but s1 is much funnier and the writing feels less stiff

I think I liked Season 2 better.

The Mossbachers from Season 1 were so insufferably awful (I get it, that's the point) that it was kind of a drag.

I might feel differently on a rewatch.
