Yeah, it definitely felt like they wanted to push the limits of what they would be allowed to create without ever stopping to think about if they should really go this far. The saying "just because you can, doesn't mean you should" kept coming to mind as I watched it. I don't think I've even seen such dissonance between two entries is a series that shared most of the same creative staff.
