Funny one liners, tragic events that were made up just for the show, arguments about social interactions all over the world, and even a few love stories. If you can find the whole series on DVD anywhere start with season 1 and work your way through to season 7 when these people are finished with their second term. If you can only find individual seasons start with season 1 and then collect the others in numerical order as you can find them.
