    Yeah, the cringe humor is clearly intentional; not my style personally. Tough for me to not think "he would be fired for that" at some point every episode. But there's plenty more in the show that I'm enjoying.

    He’s my least favorite character. My favorites are Stanley, Daryl and the Dwight / Jim stuff. When Andy comes around he has some good moments too.

    There were only a few times I actually got uncomfortable watching that show but I get it.

    This show is worth every second you spend on it.

    I dig Stanley. Andy I could take or leave (although I'm early in his tenure). Creed is by far my favorite, and Kevin cracks me up too.

    I kinda think Jim's a jerk. He has the occasional moment of kindness (ie, joining Michael in karaoke after he crashed Jim's party), but I generally dislike a lot of what he does.

    Yup, Andy is hit or miss, but I liked him as a character.

    I hated him until he sang at the roast.

    I forgot Wings. It is one of my all time favorite comedies.
    I think Antonio Scarpacci was my favorite character.
    Here's some great scenes with Antonio -

    Been watching this for the first time over the past few weeks. Just got to the episode where Wendy moves back to Canada. Ron in cornrows freaked me the heck out.

    It's a pretty good show, my wife thinks I'm basically Ron Swanson, crazy ex's and all (Least I didn't marry any of them *shrugs*).

    Not sure what season you are on, but this show takes off in a blaze of glory after Rob Lowe and Adam Scott join the cast.

    Rob Lowe is literally my favorite person, in the world, right at this very moment.

    The second I saw Adam Scott I was like, "I don't remember who that guy is, but I hate him". Then I remembered he's the demon from "The Good Place". He's become less hateable at this point.

    In truth, mine is probably Archie Bunker. Carol O'Connor played him to a T. Taking a bigot like him and mocking the hell out of him was brilliant.

    I saw some of him on TVland with my parents growing up but I struggle to remember it very well.

    All in the Family, and the Jeffersons were both great.

    So many people hated Archie because he was bigot, but a lot of people didn't realize the show was mocking bigots.

    I remember the Jeffersons much better than All in the Family.
