I really enjoyed the series but I felt after the 3rd season that the Rusty character should have went away. they could have sent him to college and he visit on holidays. there really was no reason for him to be in every episode. he brought nothing to the show after a couple of seasons. I started to get very annoyed with the Rusty character. I basically fast forward his scenes because I enjoyed the other characters on the show and wanted to continue to watch.
