Though a select few on network television, like “Abbott Elementary” and “Ghosts,” pay homage to comedies of the past while tapping into present-day culture, sitcoms today rarely feel truly universal.

NBC ’s “ Newlyweds ,” co-created by Jamie Lee Curtis and (the since-fired) Gail Lerner, is fun and refreshing, speaking to a collective audience across generations. Set in present-day Los Angeles, “Newlyweds” begins with a blind date.

James ( Tim Daly ), a reserved college professor, sits anxiously in a restaurant, awaiting Jeanie ( Téa Leoni ), a free-spirited middle school teacher who is trying to decide whether she even wants to meet James. After individually deciding to bail on the dinner, the pair run into each other by the valet, and their mutual attraction, despite their vastly different personalities, leads to a spicy evening together.

The duo initially believes that they are just having a fling, especially when James’ work sends him to Norway for a month. However, the couple’s connection continues to blossom, and they end up marrying in Las Vegas just six weeks after meeting.

Despite their whirlwind romance, neither James nor Jeanie anticipates how different their lives are. Jeanie is enmeshed with her adult children, Poppy (Emma Meisel) and Lolo (Ignacio Diaz-Silverio), who still live at home.

Real-life couple Leoni and Daly work wonderfully as a later-in-life couple, invigorated by this new romantic chapter as they navigate long-held histories, patterns and preferences.

James even tries to comfort a distraught Poppy after a breakup. Still, the banter between Claudia and Arvid (Bill O’Neill), aka Milky, James’ Norwegian-born teaching assistant, consistently stands out throughout the show.

As Claudia, Curtis is perfectly biting and obnoxious, willing to insert herself into her ex-husband’s life for sport, stomping on his feeble boundaries. However, it’s O’Neill’s turn as Arvid that elevates the series.

Like Sean Hayes’ Jack McFarland in “Will & Grace,” O’Neill has perfect comedic timing, throwing himself into every aspect of the character’s physical comedy with energetic vi
