Kim's Convenience

As part Asian and a big fan of TV shows this of course is a show for me. These days it seems very hard to make a comedy that's actually funny, but believe me, there were some laughs that you could here if you listen good.

For me this means everything for a comedy show, because in shows like The Big Bang or Silicon Valley the jokes are just not that funny. You hear the laughing tape and you think... this was a joke?

I am also a big fan of Fresh off the Boat and after two episodes this comes close, not really close, but close, because that is really one of my favorite comedy shows right now.

So I gave it a 9, maybe I would say a 8, but for a comedy that is actually funny these days I believe they deserve a 9. By the way, anyone else thinks Janet looks like a Korean Yvonne Strahovski?

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 lives up to my hopes! The Kim family's smiling faces have been showing up everywhere in Toronto the past few weeks, and after seeing the original play the series was based on I was thrilled to see what started as a gem from the Fringe reach a broader audience nation- wide.

Kim's convenience is fun, full or heart, and the series is finding its stride more and more with each episode. It's rooted in a flawed but deeply loving family and these relationships are so relate-able. I find this so much more satisfying than the typical family sitcom about about ultra-rich or ultra-poor families portrayed as 'just your average family.' Kim's Convenience, in being true to its characters, finds an honesty that's refreshing.

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!

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!
