IMDb

Still one of the funniest shows on television, especially the first four seasons when they still had a broad sense of humor.

Common Sense Media

Throughout the action, physical humor and dead-on wit keep the atmosphere light, though the ugliness of war pokes constantly through the façade.

IMDb

This show should be studied for students of sitcom production to show how a good show can be done with a stellar cast, writing, and directing.
