Peter is still way more retarded than what he was when first started.

Thing is that the new Homer is actually less dumb than the original one.
Real Homer was a stupid man who made stupid decisions.
New Homer says clever remarks, comes off kind of smart at some point and then does something completely retarded and crazy.
Old Homer was stupid
New Homer is a fucking maniac

Forgot the name of the show because it was so long ago, but there was one where the comic relief character started getting darker and darker, until it was revealed that he was depressed.

Fuck you.
Now I want to know that that is, but I have to go to bed and can't wait till someone figures it out.

Probably not this, but Dexter had something similar. But the show was so shit they the guy went back to being le comic relief.

Fez went from being naive and impressionable to being as much of an asshole as Hyde.

Black adder is literally this, he increases his social standing each series

except blackadder is the main character, the "comic relief" would be Baldric who starts out smart but becomes more of a retard every season
