I liked it. Yes, it's a bit far fetched but that's ok. There's enough edge to it, mostly stemming from the Aiden, the brother (who is hilarious BTW), to differentiate it from a sappy Hallmark show, but it's along the same lines. The family is totally dysfunctional but somehow they all accept and love each other. It's only one season long, and the story wraps up nicely so it's kind of a long miniseries. I wouldn't call it a comedy, it's more like a lighthearted drama that revolves around some serious issues without it getting too heavy. It's not the greatest show ever created but I don't think it deserves the one and two star reviews because there's definitely a lot of worse things to watch.
