It's a funny and relatable show. Family issues, especially some unique to 1st and 2nd generation immigrant families. One of the best shows out right now. No formulaic sitcom tropes, which is great to see

its a fun show. its fast, its short and if you live in toronto (specially immigrants), its very relatable. p.s. Jung is really, really hot. is it just me?

I'm enjoying this show a lot. It's a sitcom revolving around a family, but not all members live in the same building—instead, they're close-knit and often see their lives intertwine. It doesn't try to counter this with a bunch of cheesy "touching" moments, either. Oh, and did I mention that it's hilarious?

I didn't think I would like it, but I really enjoyed this!
My sides split a number of times.
Just disappointed though that it got cancelled.

This series has an intriguing premise, but the recurring storylines and cliché characters that have barely passable arcs and annoying personalities ruin it for me.
