Yeah, they're really well produced and I love them - the monologues were always the highlight for me!
I felt like the TV version was an experiment which didn't quite work - it didn't help that there wasn't much new material. But for people not familiar with the radio show of course that wouldn't matter so much.
It seemed at the time that they slapped a lot of effects all over the place to try to create an atmosphere, instead of letting the material create the atmosphere by itself. But I've not watched it probably more than once or twice since broadcast, I usually listen to Blue Jam instead
