My main complaint is that Acts I and II were each (a) funny and (b) fairly standalone in pacing (though II would likely make little sense without seeing I first, characterwise).
Act III was very strangely paced, hardly funny at all. I found it mostly mean-spirited; the only bits of So They Say that I really thought were funny were the bits with the groupies and Capt. Hammer's monologue about the anticipated joys of 'long-term' relationships.
If the whole thing were written like Act III I'd hate it.
As it is, I just feel cheated out of an actual ending that matched the beginning.
