The lead is reprehensible, and does some mean thngs in self interest. He is enormously self centered, obtuse, entitled, and politcally incorrect. That being said, He is an everyman anti-hero. I found it funny, and entertainigng. But I can understand why some might not like it. He has an ex gilfriend, who keeps coming back, although it is hard to see why. No political angles, in a time when everything else is.
