Potential classic,definitely maybe?

Under discussion:

I watched the first two episodes on download a while back..Not sure if it has been on"proper" t.v over here ...Most familiar face is that of Johnny Galecki (Darlene's boyfriend from "Rosanne".)..he is great,like a young Jason Alexander...the other main guy is reassuringly odd-looking,and gets the "Niles" lines to Galecki's "Frazier"..."sound-bite" reference could be, the "Myspace/YouTube Friends"..these are the "overachieving" losers as opposed to the Judd Apatow variety. another main character has all the "physical" humour a la "Kramer"  ..the "love interest" is cute,but not an "uberbabe" ,the theme is by a "They Might Be Giants" soundalike..it just keeps ticking all the right boxes to be a massive hit,but i found it ultimately resistable.This is so well written,so slick,i was laughing out loud all the way through,how come i havnt been back for more already?Maybe i just "got it" too quickly? Now Rizzo has reminded me,i may go back for more laughs.
