This show confronts you with the hilarity of Flemish pettiness. Never before have I been so eager to seek out the most annoying, old-fashioned and short-sighted habits of my people. However, the series does more than just expose and ridicule us. Through his attempts to bring everyone together the sociable character Innocent forces some dynamics into the painfully trite Persyn family. For the Flemings in (and outside) the show, this results in an awareness of their limiting habits and an opportunity to transcend them.
