    I'm conflicted about The Good Guys: The funny parts are really good, but the dull points REALLY drag. As it stands, if I happen to be watching the show, I multitask on something else so I only have to pay attention to the good parts. I think it has great potential, but it has yet to be realized.

    "The Good Guys" isn't really good but it is OK if all you seek from TV is bland, comfortable entertainment--the same type of program you were watching 30 years ago.

    Never before have stereotypes been so proudly strutted about.

    Good Guys isn't a perfect construct, but it's a well-executed one--albeit more a breezy, busy diversion than appointment TV, placing greater reliance on guests than its limited supporting cast to prop up the principals.
