Jeff places Lucky Star (らき☆すた) on step 8 with this:

So, despite being an uneven show, Lucky Star somehow managed to keep me hooked. Was it some sort of Kyoto Animation voodoo magic? Was I just really, really bored? Did I have a crush on Kagami?

Nothing is left but to agree.

I also think that the change of directors helped the show enormously, and the best parts were outside of the joke routine, of which the ghost visit was the climax.
