I'd label it "not horrible" in terms of quality and I will admit it had a guilty pleasure aspect to it. I wouldn't be surprised if its ratings held up decently. I wish I had seen half hour numbers but the overall retention from the lead in do not suggest a wipe out during the hour.

One thing that surprised me was the high volume of kid storylines. The ad campaign didn't seem to me like it was targeting the crowd that would be interested in that stuff. Even one kid storyline would have been somewhat surprising, but this was much more than that.
I agree it was nothing special but will admit that it exceeded my very low expectations. I was expecting "poor man's Mad Men," and in a lot of ways it is, but it definitely feels like more of a broad network show and even uses that to its advantage. (For example, the kid storylines would be even more out of place on Mad Men, I think.)
