    Isn’t the whole point that it’s riffing off the sexual misconduct in the bond movies? Also, Its been a while, but I recall Austin always being overtly consensual as a contrast to the Bond series

      Yes, that’s the satire. Which is lost on folks who did not grow up with the old bond movies, instead tossing it in the “boomer humor” category without understanding that the reason it was funny to the last generation was because it played off stuff from the previous generation.

      Time moves on. Like a poster above us said, the movies aged badly because the comedy isn’t timeless, say like Who’s On First.
