Ok- I'm only responding because your question seems sincere. Maybe what you're "missing" is identification. If you can identify with the character in "The Critic" (he's your grandfather, your uncle) then you appreciate it because he has nailed the character so perfectly. The art is in the perfection.
Just as great art should evoke an emotional response, this evokes the emotional resposnse of remembering people from your past. If you didn't have these people, or love these people, it "misses".
