the first and second season start off shakily and with good episode sandwich in between average one and and at time resort to clichéd story . but once it start to set up the universe in which it exist and start to develop it character more and it become a lot more fun and entertaining . the main reason this show succeed it because of four men represent richard dean anderson and peter deluise and joseph malozzie and paul mullie . richard dry sense of humour make to show so much good and peter directing be excellent and make any episode so much more entertaining and and joe and paul never fail to make a funny and interesting episode together . once you understand what the show be about and get to know the character and i doubt you would not like the show . for those get into the show i suggest the episode the other side and a good serious episode and and window of opportunity and a classic comic relief episode .
