Ultimately, it works, because 'Great News' is really about the overlap between personal and professional life - which is what any decent workplace comedy boils down to.
This is a better show than the first episode might have suggested, one that deserved a better shake... Comedy pilots need time to develop and room to let their stories play out. Networks would do well to remember that.
It's just an enjoyable show. I've forgotten how nice that can be. This is just a good sitcom, with a likable cast and funny lines. In 2017, we deserve it.
