Yes, but it doesn't matter. Jerry doesn't care, and he has a ridiculously good life, and somehow they actually like him in the end. That's the wholesome fantasy: that no conflict ultimately matters.
So it's not about nice people at all. It's shitty people being shitty and being rewarded with dream jobs and a fairytale ending.
Going back to Ted Lasso - I thought maybe I was being too harsh, tried s2 again. Its just boring. It's not even bad. It's just aggressively dull. S1 had Rebecca scheming, Todd was an underdog, Roy, Kelly, etc all had their own arcs and everyone grew as people. S2 is just nice people being nice because they all secretly are nice people with hearts of gold who are secretly nice, rinse and repeat. It's not bad, just flat. The discourse might be completely overblown but that feels like an overreaction to the overrating of the 1st series. The truth is somewhere in the middle but that doesn't make for a very interesting debate. Same as the show really - less cynicism and more kindness is welcome, but not to the extent where your left with a bland, saccharine void.
The Detectorists is a perfect example. Most of the characters are lovely people and are friends. They all come out and help each other when needed. But it always has a rough edge or bit of conflict to push against. And it's incredibly funny.
