Maverick Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 There doesn't seem to be a thread about this show here. This is one of the best out there. I've watched the whole series three times, and I'm looking forward to watching it again. It's got Seinfeld level re-watchability. So who else is a fan? Ew, David! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
invisible airwave Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 (edited) I finished season 1 recently. This scene is hilarious. "Here's a hint. Sadly, I'm not drunk!" :lol: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2TEaGJcOAs4 Edited February 21, 2021 by invisible airwave 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueschica Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 I love it. Catherine O'Hara (who was always underrated, IMO) is at her best as Moira. :) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J2112YYZ Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 Stopped watching some time in the second season since I found all the main characters thoroughly unlikable and I couldn't find any sympathy for their "struggle". I also didn't find it to be that funny. Which was a letdown since Eugene Levey and Catherine O'Hara are in it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also didn't find it to be that funny. Which was a letdown since Eugene Levey and Catherine O'Hara are in it.I made it about that far. I think I said something similar to your post in the Binge thread. I found it funny, but once they started to run out of jokes and moved more to relationship development I list interest. As you noted, they are funny but mostly unlikable, and as the funny wanes, the latter becomes more of an issue. At dinner last night folks were raving about the show, and I agreed that Levy and son were excellent in their roles, as well as OHara. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IbanezJem Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 I`ve not seen it but a friend who I generally share comedy taste with loves it. The title sounds like they thought of that first and then fitted a show around it, which I find off-putting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, because I love that show. Plus, they weren't trying to be a comedy that wasn't funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bahamas Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 If you realize they are making fun of "themselves", a family in that situation - from ultimately super rich and then have to make do with a "joke" purchase of a town because it was "there" and then have to live there, it works.Yes it popularizes gay comedy, but not every scene is great. It's just that they kept at it, kept working the characters with a really low budget and made it work. CBC is not Blockbuster...but the family was? I found lots of funny moments.The whole "personal space" issues when they are used to being totally spoiled and no parents around - to parents around constantly with no space, super silly. And O'Hara is wonderfully ridiculous. A matter of taste, but they stuck to it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
