On first watch of the first two episodes, many (like me) enjoyed the comedy just fine while others (my spouse, for instance) weren't fully convinced. However these episodes plant seeds that blossom beautifully as the season progresses, and even more reluctant viewers are fully reeled in in episode three. Each episode keeps getting better and going deeper in emotional complexity, while remaining funny as hell. A rewatch shows how masterfully the themes and details were established in the first episodes.
So! Even if you feel "eh" on this episode, please do yourself a favor and watch two more episodes to see where things are going. I have watched and enjoyed a lot of television in my time but this is the only show that has literally been life-changing.
