Yes... Those who are older will probably agree that KVN is not at all what it was 10 years ago. Now, of all the teams, you can only really watch Pyatigorsk and Pelmeni (I don't remember if they still perform or not). The other teams (including the much-beloved Sochi with their monkey-like antics) produce a couple of funny jokes per season. Why do I think this? Because many jokes from old KVN became catchphrases that we still repeat today, and which so-called "satirists" shamelessly steal and insert into their performances. And what about now? You watch a game, and by the next day you can't remember a single joke.
IMHO, Maslyakov should take a break for a couple or three seasons to give both himself and the teams time to collect their thoughts and pull themselves together.
But overall, I like KVN much more than other so-called "humorous" shows.
