There was a definite schizophrenic feel to the writing, particularly in the earlier seasons. I always thought of it as a 'cavemen vs astronauts' thing, and unfortunately, the cavemen won. All the sharpness and cleverness got thrown out in favour of fart jokes.
The show is total product. It's just a job for the actors. I don't ever see it having that same kind of 'cast reunion' thing that something like 'Firefly' manages. I suspect there will be an increasing number of guest stars in throwaway cameos, simply because they can.
(...My secret wish is that they approach some Big Name Geek, who tells them to get lost and then makes a personal statement about not wanting to appear, because it's turned into offensive garbage. Sadly, it won't happen, because a job is a job, but.)
