It's disconcerting to think that since TV transmissions travel almost infinitely into the universe, channel-surfing extraterrestrials might get a glimpse of this show, thus lowering their opinion of Earthlings still further.

The series' central problems are insurmountable.

For the most part the concept is pedestrian and secondary characters are reduced to stereotypes.
