misunderstood, and therefore underrated
The only way to really understand this great series is to try and realize that the humour here is not on a regular comedy level. I thought this would be obvious, but I guess a lot of folks don't get it; when I take a look at the many negative user comments about he show being superficial and cheap, I get a little frustrated.
That's my Bush is pure sarcasm. A mockery of american society and mentality. It places the sit-com formula, typical to America, in a fully absurd context, with all the cheap jokes, the predictable twists and clichés of the average sit-com. Very risky, but very well done.
For instance, when Bush closes each show with the "I'm gonna punch you in the face" it's a ridcule of feel-good humour and through and beyond that: a sharp and cynical perspective on America: mostly on general indifference and superficiality, which are ironically the things that caused this clever show to live a short life.
