The first time I tried watching this, I got about two thirds into the first episode and turned it off thinking it was garbage.
Fast forward approximately two years and my wife convinces me to give it another go.
After viewing the first ten minutes of the opening episode I honestly cannot remember or understand what I had against it the first time. The stories are well written, the characters are all people I can relate to, the acing is spot on, and the jokes are funny..
The situations are all completely off the wall and absurd, and yet are completely believable that such situations could actually happen in the real world.
The only two things I could suggest to improve upon it is I wish they had put more effort into changing the hairstyles and clothes to help differentiate the years, and as another reviewer already said, possibly made the episodes an hour each so they could flesh out the characters a bit more.
