This isn't a review of the show. It's a review on how well it plays on the app. The show consistently freezes or doesn't play at all. I also can't choose an episode by season. I purchased the entire series. To choose an episode, they all line up horizontall and I have to scroll over several times to reach the later seasons. Also, the whole title of the show doesn't appear. Very frustrating.

I love this show since I can remember watching it. Always a good laugh and something to make you forget about about the bad in your own life for a minute and or relate to them in the show series it's weird how you feel connected to the charactets and their life story lines after so many episodes. Definitely a classic in my book
