The casting was outstanding from the beginning, with Kevin James offering a revolving door of exposure throughout his series for hot young Jersey and New York comics on the rise. The script here sets up the premise well and gets Stiller into the perfect situation where he can be fussy and ruthlessly alienated but also endearing in a way only the genius of Jerry Stiller can pull off. Stiller is one of the great character actors still around after a very innovative career as a comedian with his talented wife. Extremely underrated show that serves as an excellent time capsule of suburban American life for middle class America in the prosperous late 90s.

It's a clean and nice beginning to the show.

The characters, their lives and current situation (family, relationship, job, etc.) are properly introduced in a nice way. The intonations of each character are really effective in delivering those jokes and other funny stuff.
Even though, Kevin James and Leah Remini just started with this show along with Jerry Stiller, they put up a really great and stress-relieving start to the series.
The development of significant events makes the entire series interesting to watch. The jokes and gags are really getting there; it's as if it makes the sitcom feel you and really entertain you.
