None that I've noticed It's actually quite nice not to feel personally liable when other people are doing stupid things anymore.

If you're willing to generalize from one data point, I say go for it :)

If you DO go for it, note that most of the benefit came from watching the first two seasons, so if you don't experience any change after that, it probably isn't worth pursuing. Also, I watched it with a bunch of friends who all clearly enjoyed it, so that might be a good detail to replicate if possible.

Also if you try it, let me know how it turns out, I'm really curious.

I've seen the first two or three seasons, and it didn't cure me. :(
