If you are expecting This is Us or The Ozarks you will obviously be disappointed. This show is lightweight with over the top exaggerated acting which I suspect is on purpose. It reminds me of a Nickelodeon or Disney Channel kids show.
If you want complex dialogue, great intense acting and controversy this show isn't for you.
HOWEVER-
It is sweet. It is clean. It is safe. The whole family can watch it. They model/preach universally taught values such as honesty, hard work, love etc...
It has a couple actresses that are beloved.
I think society has gotten away from the classic lightweight family sitcom. Shows like Family Matters, Silver Spoons, Punky Brewster etc are just not abundant anymore. This seems to be in a similar vein but is a little too over the top to be taken seriously. But many shows have rocky starts the first season, I suggest giving it a chance and seeing where they go with it.
If nothing else it will be something to laugh about with your friends and family later this week.
I give it a solid 7 out of 10 because despite all I just said, by episode 7 I found myself starting to be invested in the characters and it is a great show to have on in the evening while I'm making dinner and our kids are in the living room.
