All the "professional" critics did not like this show. Critics are always saying they want something different than the usual Hollywood schlock. But when it's given to them, they don't get it. This show is hard to describe. The script is tongue in cheek, not just a series of stupid jokes. There are a few laugh out loud moments. But mostly its just enjoyable to watch. The camera work and directing are like it's a serious drama. The charcaters take themselves seriously. Carroll singing and dancing Kokomo to decompress is funny but not totally out of character. This is a very refreshing show. At least the first episode. It's pretty near to brilliant.
