I actually like this show a lot, but then I'm a Seth McFarlane fan and a sci-fi nerd too.
I have to agree with some of the critics who say it's trying too hard, it is.
I think the characters are all pretty good, with exception to the blob character - he needs to go, he's a waste of space.
That would be change one for me. Another change would be just having the main characters get over their divorce because the constant references to it are annoying.
Another change I would love to see in all these shows, but won't, is make the place look a little untidy. Everywhere is so pristinely white and it makes it look fake to me.
I think, given the time to develop, this will turn into a good show that people will really enjoy, in much the same way that shows like Buffy started out a little iffy, but really found their feet.
So far, so good on this one for me, but jettison that blob, OMG, it's gotta go!
