I remember them being a lot more interesting to watch, and you got a real feel for the candidate's positions (at least their public persona). But for the last ~8 years, it's been just gish galloping.
E.g., Obama vs. Romney was honestly pretty interesting to watch.
In my mind, that was the last real debate. They addressed their opponents comments and added their own. It wasn't an endless stream of buzz words.
