I watch it on Peacock only as the occasional new movie feature, and in this case t.v. show, they offer. But barely two new shows per month. And I use the term "new" loosely as in movies are a dozen years old. Although free streamline, granted, but it is on par with Hulu's $5.99 streamline version which is also slim pickings as to anything contemporary. It is sort of like a company offering free website but hoping you'll switch from the bland offering (or can't decipher how to do the "fast, easy, and fun" DIY instructions) to their professional-paid web design. Likewise, after 3 free episodes of Rutherford Falls, Peacock has bumped the show up to pay per view status. Don't know how they justify that. Ed Helms is kind of annoying in the role, sort of like eating too much taffy. 3 stars for nice props.

It has the comedic elements for a great first season. In conclusion, it would have made more impact as a one time movie, then the sequel. Steve Carell was certainly a great lead for the role. I'm positive the 2nd season will be more humorous. It took the Big Bang show a few years to get a laugh out of me then the laughs were non-stop from Penny, Sheldon, Raj, and the whole cast. Sheldon is having a very successful spin-off show called Young Sheldon.
