Yeah, it's definitely gotten better. The characters are all still unlikable, but they're becoming interesting-unlikable, instead of just unlikable stereotypes. They also get a lot of the early 80s ambiance right - the sets, the clothes, the hair, the cars. Even some of the beardy, geeky engineers remind me of my dad's buddies from back in the day.
