It's not horrible, the characters are just a little too over done. Ed and Lauren aren't bad; Lauren gets a little silly occasionally, but overall she's okay, and Ed is my favorite of the bunch. They could do without the brother, Alan, who leans more toward repulsive than funny. The ex-wife Lydia is horrible. She's obnoxious and no one in real life would put up with her crap; she really adds nothing to the show and is painful to watch. Lauren's parents are annoying but typical, and not overly offensive. Lauren's sister and brother-in-law and kids are also annoying but tolerable. Overall it's entertaining.
