It takes a while to get into, about half of first season. Notice that along with the juvenile and jock humor there is also some room for sophistication, wit or simply well crafted jokes. Its a little heavy on references so feels like namedropping or posing at times, but solid entertainment for the first 3 seasons. Then the quality starts to decline, slowly at first, but by season 6 the show hardly solicits a smile, not to even mention a belly laugh. You shouldn't have to force yourself to watch something out of a sense of nostalgia.
As for common complaints like Pam and the cocaine, it does get old fast, like fart jokes or for that matter Archers brand of douchebaggery and the supremely annoying voice. As with most good shows its the support characters that make the difference. With that said if Krieger makes the planet of the apes reference one more time it will be exactly three times too many.
