Are there any other shows out there of this sort of lighthearted nature, yet made with quality writing, out there?

It feels like a lot of recent things we've watched has been a bit grim and/or relies on spectacle rather than telling a good story and working a few jokes in along the way ... the world is on fire, I'd like to stop it and get off, if only for a few minutes at a time.

God damn, I thought I was the only one who appreciated that show! I loved the whole cast and it's irreverent take on corporate evil. I loved how blatantly evil the company was. And Veronica just dealing with anything however she wanted. That show was too perfect for the world.

If you'd appreciated it harder, maybe we wouldn't have lost it!
