It took some time to get used to and get onboard what the creators were doing here but I get it.
You're not meant to like the canned laughter, the bright coloured, typical US sitcom. It's a tool to make us hate Kevin as much as Allison does and it works. Hated Kevin immediately and hated every moment of the cheesy jokes, the daytime sitcom crap style. It was horrible and cringeworthy to watch, but that's why you're on Allison's side so much during the other side of the show, the more grey, gritty, real world side of life. It's why you want her to win and get away. It's why you don't feel any sympathy for Kevin.
It works and I'll watch season two for sure.
Also, Annie Murphy's accent took some getting used to after watching Schitt's Creek but... it's there. Deal with it.
