Somewhere in between, but more to the delightful for me. Extra effort was put into this compared to many TV-to-movie adaptations, and it pays off.
The sets, the gags, work for me. John Goodman gets to do a Jackie Gleason (via Fred) nod. And he and Rick Moranis are locked in.

The Bullseyes are still good eats. Even as a kid I didn't understand the appeal of circus peanuts.

Eh, the NYT has known this since before "Biden is old" became their assignment editor.
