Also, this is just my opinion, but it seems to me like the show's trying to copy the whole Family Guy type approach. The episodes don't really seem to have any real meaning, and they're doing nothing to make you care about any of the characters anymore. Like everything on the show is just one big non-stop joke and full of sarcastic humor and stuff like that. I don't particularly enjoy the 'sentimental' stuff, but it seems really bland without at least some of it.
Maybe its because you are all growed up now.
