the new york times takes a stab at explaining the show's success:
In a rare concurrence, the darling of the critics is one of the highest rated comedies on television, and is the 20th rated show over all this season.

what a delicious way to go.
A 22-year-old tortilla factory worker in Brooklyn was fatally injured in a freakish accident early Monday when he fell into a dough-mixing machine, the police said. The man, whose name was not immediately released, was working at Tortilleria Chinantla at 975 Grand Street in East Williamsburg around 2:30 a.m. when he fell into the waist-high tub of the mixer and was pinned by the metal blade, which is not sharp but is powered by a strong motor, the police said. The half-dozen other workers were unable to save him. No criminality is suspected. (via)
