I like watching this show, but it is like if "Star Trek" was a comedy, or a 30-min updated edition of "Back to the Future, " but Ricky Ullman as the main character instead of Michael J. Fox. It has so many things in common with usual science fiction shows or movies, such as a time machine, despite the malfunctioning mechanics of the one used (notice the "check engine" sign in the opening). Plus, the nice jumpsuits makes the family look like they are from "the future." That is why I summarize this show as a good Disney show that can be referred to a cross between a comedy and science fiction, more than just a Saturday morning cartoon (even though it's not a cartoon).
