My View: Excellently written and a hilarious concept. Literally as soon as you hit age 20, everything is about the experience of the successful gay male, but all of the stuff surrounding that is original and funny. I suspect that Javerbaum did quite a lot of the work for this, but the classic NPH voice is certainly discernible... unless Javerbaum has just studied that voice so carefully that he mimics it perfectly.
Always,
