Kind of feel like the only reason this show called on was for the '80s nostalgia
I watched the first two seasons and I probably won't finish it because the plot it's too slow and all the characters are boring in one dimensional
No spoilers for those who might be interested in watching it but it's like too many irrelevant things that don't move the plant forward, plot points that just seem contrived and forced and don't really make any sense.

Two of the kids at my job were talking about that just yesterday. They seemed excited about it, but their discussion was about plot elements that seemed off-the-shelf: I got the impression the script writers just took plot modules and connected them together into an excuse for a story.

True the Plot is a bit weak but the main reason this series exist is for 80s nostalgia.

That's the main reason for almost everything movie or TV. :p

Wait... there's 70's nostalgia too. Star Wars has been running almost half a century on 70's nostalgia.

I prefer the show on the history channel where the guy eats food from the 80s. Think his name is Adam. Hubby and I watch it and tell stories about where we were and what we were doing when this or that was popular. lol
