I watch the show slavishly and love it. One of the things I like most about it is the references to classic films and TV-shows that pop up as part of the story. While I get some of the jokes that relate to US middle-class life, I'm sure I miss many. But, my point is, the show works on many levels. Kids love it; adults love it; foreigners love it. Can't do much better than that ;) M. - -- Martin Howard, Grad.
