I don't watch a lot of TV, and I certainly don't watch sitcoms. But, this is a fun, stupid, and hilarious show. It aims to be exactly that, and achieves it. It's not going to make you think much, and it's not going to be transcending sitcom boundaries.
The cast is subtle at times and outrageous at other times; a good ensemble here. People whining about Kathy Bates' elderly hippie schtick clearly don't get out much, because she's great here. And people whining about the laugh track? Jeez, I didn't even notice it because I was busy laughing.
Lighten up/light up and enjoy. We don't see "traditional" sitcoms like this anymore without the usual "ironic upgrades" or pretentious attempts to "break boundaries". It's not a ten, but I don't think it's aiming for that; it's exactly what it is, so enjoy it for that.
