Wonderful review, and I really like your point that actors and writers just don't seem to know what to do with multi-camera sitcoms. Old Frasier is frequently too much like a horror movie for me to fully enjoy—I just can't watch them make JD Salinger toss his manuscript out the window, I can't do it—but it understands the form so well.

Hey thanks so much! It's funny, I also went through a phase where the third acts made me want to hide in a hole out of secondhand embarrassment. That Salinger episode, whew, yeah that's a rough one
