I didn’t realize this show had a thread, but I’m rewatching it for the fourth time or so. I’ve been a big fan of it for about 10 years or so.

How to describe it? It’s a gloves off version of Seinfeld (or a Sitcom starring assholes) leaning more into Curb your Enthusiasm level of inappropriateness. WAAAAY more into the anti-role model thing—it’s the same sort of characters, only they kind of failed at life… and it’s more gen X. It’s the sort of show that would never get greenlit outside of the shock culture era, this show came out at the tail end of it. Also, they’ve taken Larry David’s advice of never ending the show, so it’s still going 16 years later. They survived D Glenn Howerton’s (Dennis’s) midlife crisis when he almost left the show a few years ago.

Here’s a few clips.
