I don't understand the love for this show. My wife watches it, and randomly I'll catch a few minutes of it, and I swear every single scene is depressed people screaming at each other, or repeatedly yelling the word CHEF a thousand times in a row. Is there a single scene when a person smiles? Is happy? I call it "the yelling show".

Most scripted dramas don't work when you randomly drop in on them. You have to build a relationship with the characters by following them through their journey which starts at the start. Then when things escalate to yelling you know why.
