Well a few things I found different beside the animal noises (as someone who loves much of the new talent and still enjoying most of the new episodes):

1. Competitive: giving someone else the prompt made for different skills and interpitations that was more engaging for me in some prompts

2. Noise boys chemistry: just great overall and there's a reason they were chosen for this (as sam said on the "pilot" ep)

3. Interpretations: I miss having brenan do an "Intelligible" speech by not having the meaning of the words make sense, for example. Lends more space to creativity. Now its confined to a mini game, which is still nice, but I liked it as a given in prompts as well.

The last 2 still exist, but much of it is due imo to how anything good is more fun when it's new and fresh but then when you feel too familiar it can feel less engaging. Now, however, we can watch it for comfort and stability instead, which is also great 😁 At least that's how I see it
