This is the only traditional sitcom on NBC right now. Does that raise the bar? Is the pressure really on?

There definitely is more pressure on "traditional" four-camera, live-audience sitcoms right now. But I don't think that affects how any of us on the show think or act or write. The fact is, funny is funny, and if we can make people laugh and care about these characters, then hopefully the audience won't be too particular about the technicalities.
