I do understand most people would not really like Pompidou. However I come from truly enjoying and knowing most of the Laurel and Hardy shorts - and to me Pompidou is a great mash up of the old Laurel and Hardy formula with a modern twist to it. Knowing the old material, there are lots of parallels and they are done quite well.
But they could do better. These initial six episodes - I can only take one per sitting. The "dialog" is funny but I can only take so much. I do like how they will pick certain words that can be heard clearly, such as the signature "That really hurt me" and "out". But I have to say every one of the six contain several moments that are hilarious to me.
