Good show, but it usually lags

I like this show in retrospective, but as a comedy TV show, it ranks pretty low. I wanted to like it, but it doesn't hit the mark. Some good laughs, some good acting (George Carlin makes his first acting debut as Marlo Thomas' agent George Lester) but that's it. As a retrospective, it is pretty good (right up there with the Honeymooners). B+
