    So as to not pollute the "Geez, guys..." thread.

    Watched the first four episodes this afternoon.

    Totally delightful.

    If it weren't for the f-bombs, this is something I could have shared with my younger kids, back in the day. Sudeikis is great, and I'm looking forward to the development of some of the other characters.

    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

      It really is charming, and totally unique as far as the fish out of water genre.

        Is that the case?

          ..is just the freshest thing on tv. Funny but full of heart and great characters. Highly recommend.

          Just started watching it . 1000%

          It does - but only because my woke antenna is dialed in. I eye roll here and there, but it doesn't detract from the show much. That said, I'm only a few episodes into the 2nd season.

            Not really. I don't know where I had heard it, but nothing even furrowed my brow.

              Not really. I don't think it was quite as charming as the first season, but it certainly had its moments.

              I suspect they were so gobsmacked that it was so well received that they weren't quite sure what to do next.

                Started Season 2 today - watched a couple.

                Still charming.

                  I didn’t think it got woke. Everything was handled very well. Will say more once George has finished.

                    Rumor is that Season 4 is in the works.

                    One of the best things on Apple TV.

                      Fun to watch, very human characters. Not sure what else they can do with it, but willing to try.
