Kim's Convenience

Watched the 1st 8 episodes in a row by 3rd was hooked. TV needs more of these gentle comedies without the raunchy plots and sexual overtones or violence which dominates most programs today. Very impressed for a Canadian production . The main character is very likable and I like the banter between him and his friend in the show. Not sure why they have the son and father distanced in the show but probably for plot lines later on n the series. I give the show at least 4 seasons and would not be surprised to see it get a bot of a cult following to it. looking forward to the rest of the season as I have watched 9 to date. Would surely recommend any family or kids to watch it as it is very tame in script.

A great comedy, the cast have chemistry and the storylines are well developed. Each episode brings laughter and an occasional heartfelt moment. Ok, see you!

I really love comedies, I grew up watching all the black and white classics and sitcoms were a staple of mine, foreign comedies are my go- to and nothing is better than a good laugh. This show? It's everything my little first generation born heart has yearned for in a comedy. In the vein of Cristella and Fresh off the Boat, this show is about an immigrant/first generation family and their day to day life in this ever changing, ever expanding community of the North Americas. But it's So. Much. Better. It's everything I had hoped from Cristella (as a child of Mexican immigrants) and what Fresh off the Boat just missed the mark on in terms of realism. It is an honest family show that echos so many of my own experiences and gives me such a happy outlook on them.

This is such a great show and you won't be disappointed. The writing, the acting, the directing, all of it is just fantastic.

I cannot believe they are wrapping this up after Season Five. It was a great very funny show. And I know someone will replace it with more garbage and utter crap.

This show has been papering Toronto in billboards but i still completely missed it. Cute, fun, airy - it's very broad in its appeal while still feeling very specific to the immigrant/2nd generation experience.

I also very much enjoyed seeing different communities interact on the show; it pokes fun at minority-minority friction which is hardly ever seen on TV

Regent Park neighborhood holds a lot of memories from my youth, and they do a decent job of getting the setting down, even with the pretty funny sitcom style comedy

Definitely worth a watch, the CBC fall 2016 line up has been stacked so far!
