Die Pradeeps aus Pittsburgh

This is great, happy to see this. The film Growing Up Smith (also on Prime with Jason Lee from My Name is Earl and Hilarie Burton) helped open doors for this show (and many like it). Houghton was the original creator of Growing Up Smith after living with four gents from India in a small apartment. OIt's crazy, a Growing Up Smith series was actually shopped around H-wood with Alec Baldwin, the series had even been discussed with Lorne Michaels.

But this is a fun show. Fade the haters who won't/don't get it. They'll say "stereotyping", etc. It's based on a TRUE STORY, for goodness sakes. Uh, duh. And it's a strong story about strong people.

Yes, the characters are over the top. That's because this is a comedy and not a documentary. The Indian characters are stereotypical, but so are the American ones. The Mills Family are every single American stereotype wrapped into one family - it's actually impressive that the writers managed it: overly religious, petty, redneck, hunting, etc. - every American stereotype ever, wrapped up in a bushy beard and a bleach-blonde hairdo.

So two stereotypes - Indian and American - living next-door to each other: it was just funny. The youngest Pradeep was adorable, and not at all realistic for any child his age, no matter what country they came from. But it's a tv show and not reality.

It's not perfect, far off from that. But it's definitely pretty funny and good for a Sunday binge.

I found the show really entertaining! Honestly, just ignore the haters-most of the negative comments seem to come from people who just don't get the humor. I'm Indian, and my girlfriend is Colombian, and we both couldn't stop laughing at the accents and the little guy who's obsessed with garbage and recycling. The show definitely has its moments, and what's funny is that I even see some similarities between the characters and my own parents. It's refreshing to see something that plays with cultural quirks. These days, people are so overly sensitive that it's hard to enjoy anything without someone getting offended. But seriously, give it a watch and decide for yourself!

Entertaining well made series actors had good job. It should be appreciated it's made by indian who does not have any complex of presenting a big percentage of indian immigrants actual character don't understand why indians who are in india find this offending which I am sure indian immigrants won't display because they know that this is not kind of assumption but true and it is maturity that we learn to accept ourselves rather than denying it. This series has a child like simplicity no one is trying to do comedy the script and direction is in a way that daily day to day life of characters their conversation has comedy. No white will ever feel offended that the white characters too are on the same line as the immigrants that is called maturity.

It is a fun and creative concept and loved it all the way. The family is hilarious. The premise is that immigration officers are looking into the conduct of a recent immigrant family from India who are interrogated for burning a house of their neighbours down. Then what cooks up between the neighbours and this family is what the show is all about. There are funny incidents and Pradeep's are not able to steer clear of the Mill's, their neighbours. Kinda reminded me of Schitt's Creek in some way.

Not sure about the bad reviews. First of all it's not offensive as it is called out to be. Would just like to say to loosen up and not get offended by everything.

I hope there is a season 2.
