This is, well.....David Lynch and unlike most examples of David Lynch's dark humor, this is straight up screwball comedy. Typically, Lynch's humor is enclosed in a frame which is interesting, different and terrifying on the fringes. This sitcom has some odd darkly comic incidents but it lacks that frame.
This show was probably meant to be only 7 episodes and that's enough because any longer would wear out its welcome rapidly. There is not much room for various stereotypical sitcom plots.
The sitcom is set in the 50s and centers around the debut of a new television show starring a movie star's debut on TV named Lester Guy. Their show succeeds despite everything going wrong and professional jealousy drives the sitcom plot because other people become the star of the "Lester Guy Show".
That is basically the show and it is something David Lynch fans will love if they are in the mood for light entertainment. Granted that may not be many since alot of avid fans of Lynch's work are poster children for pretentiousness. People like that have no sense of humor. They'd laugh everytime they saw how they dressed when looking in a mirror if they did.
