It might just be that I like my sitcoms edgier, but I found the first episode too packaged, too diluted, too manufactured in a network conference room. Maybe like a show produced by a machine that has been developed to make "hit sitcoms" versus humans who are funny actually gathering in a room to write a funny sitcom. I don't want to generalize network vs. cable/streaming because there are some other network shows I find appealing, but if "network" has a stereotype of "appeal to the masses because they are too dumb to understand clever writing," this would be a good representation of that. I was just disappointed b/c I enjoy Zach Braff & wanted it to be better.
