It only ran for two seasons and never rated very high. It did get a ton of Emmy nominations, though. Probably just a bit too early for its time – people weren’t ready in 1984 for a thoroughly reprehensible lead character. My favorite scene was one where he hangs a dude out the window of a skyscraper by his feet, but I can’t find a clip of it. Like all '80s sitcoms, the laugh track was atrocious.
