The comedy is really relevant to the shows setting and time period. It's like if someone made a reference to the Nintendo power glove, geeking out, or the running pad and having races with their friend on the nes. Someone that experienced that goes through memory lane. "I remember that!" The younger person would kinda look clueless. Like... ok... what makes this such an awesome moment for you? I totally don't get it. This shows lame. It's filled with stuff like that. Tons of 80s references and references even before that as well. Having older brothers sometimes fills in the gaps. The show isn't for everyone of course. As you've shown, it doesn't attract certain viewers as much.
