Trivia
The only show in TV history to receive Emmy nominations for Best Comedy Series (in 2014) and Best Drama Series (in 2015). This was due to a change in Emmy rules stating that all shows running longer than 30 minutes per episode are classified as dramas. Shows longer than 30 minutes per episode that considering themselves as comedy can appeal the classification. This show lost the appeal in 2015 and remained in the Emmy race as a drama.

I liked the show a lot, till last season. Sorry, this is disgrace. It wasn't funny, it was preachy, pushing very specific point of view and it was not even entertaining. The writing for final season is really bad: whoever wrote it has zero talent and should change their occupation. However, I do think the show in general was good enough to give 7 score (0 for last season and 8-9 for other seasons). Would recommend to watch minus last pathetic final season.
