Anyone catching the new Demitri Martin series and do you feel that it's breaking new ground?

The new series on Comedy Central I find quite enjoyable and pretty different than the normal fare. I saw an especially irreverent episode last night which almost reminded me of a Fluther thread- Galileo, Shakespeare, and Ben Franklin were acting out in a restaurant and got thrown out for harassing the waitress. Funny stuff and made me realize how much I miss shows like the Kids in the Hall or the State.
