I really enjoyed this show at first, enough to recommend it to a friend. The characters were funny, the stories generally entertaining. Etc.
But, as the series continues it started to feel like the writers got lazy... making characters make dumb decisions or being just plain annoying. For example, in one episode, Janet wins $500 on a lottery ticket and is told it is against the law for claim the ticket as an employee of the store. Everyone she asks to turn in the ticket for her freaks out about getting into trouble and she likewise acts like an idiot when she tries to turn it in herself. In the same episode her mother wears an expensive coat that doesn't belong to her and it gets ruined, prompting them to try and hide the damage through stupid tricks. This represented a clear trend in the writing on the show and the episode was so annoying, predictable, and cliched that I turned off the show and likely won't watch it any more. It is really a shame, it was fun, light hearted entertainment (good for when you're stuck at home).
