Watching the never-ending Endless Eight was hard for us, and it was hard for the voice of Haruhi, Aya Hirano, as well. She said she was really surprised when she found out that she would basically be doing the same act 8 times over, with the same script used with only very small changes for the 2nd through 7th episodes of Endless Eight (that's probably the reason I skipped through most of those episodes).
Hirano had to keep her performance as Haruhi the same through each of those episodes, while Tomokazu Sugita had to think up ad-libs for Kyon (which were very nicely done) and also keep in mind the differences in direction in each episode, such as the distance between him and Koizumi in the same scene changing episode to episode.
Hirano's glad it's all over, and is thankful that Haruhi fans stuck with Endless Eight, saying it was probably harder to watch than to do it. She said that if she were asked to do any more Endless Eight episodes she'd say no, and we'd say no, too. But, with the announcement of Endless Eight events at Anime Newtype Online, Kadokawa and KyoAni don't seem to be making any effort to listen to Haruhi fans. Will they ever admit that Yamakan was right and they royally screwed this one up?

Had the (not unreasonable) expectation that Endless Eight was two or three episodes, Sighs following Endless Eight would not have been vilified (and was somewhat expected). The fact that the consolation for Endless Eight was Sighs made people disappointed.
However, that doesn't change the fact that it's still one of the weakest light novel volumes of the series. That's not to say it's not any good, it's just not as good as a lot of the other material. This problem is compounded by the fact that there's a lot of better material that we're already familiar with, when at the time, this would have only been the second book and there wouldn't have been much to compare it to.
