This show is just so special, beautifully drawn, written & presented, I loved all the characters, the opening credits, the unpretentious un self conscious feel of it and how the many aspects of personality/ behaviour around grief loss deception yearning etc is portrayed. Highly recommended. It's a shame so many people will be binging on exploitative muck like YOU and missing this wonderful heart and soul contribution. Thanks to all involved.

Totally addictive, great character developments. Intense dramas with an omnipresent fine touch. Welcome to an approach to the life of an ultraorthodox Jewish family of Jerusalem.

I started watching this by accident, and was hooked. It is so sweetly different and well worth a binge session. The characters were well written and not like the two dimensional ones in some dramas. I don't know anything about the Haredi community but this web of very human stories made me laugh out loud, brought me close to tears and left me wanting more.

Without exception, everyone I know who has been introduced to this series is hooked almost immediately. It is beautifully written and acted and gives us a rare look at an Orthodox Israeli family that nevertheless must deal with universal problems, contradictions and consequences. The English subtitles do not distract from the show's dramatic impact or the actors' nuanced performances. Orthodox Jewish viewers will undoubtedly have a better understanding of the material; there are subtleties that can be appreciated only by those familiar with the lifestyle. But that should not preclude others from giving this show the opportunity it deserves. There appear to be conflicting reports concerning the production of Season 3. Hopefully we have not seen the last of this terrific series.

Well at last I have found a program that I absolutely love. Grandma makes me laugh out loud, she is a real character. I am learning about this different culture and find it so interesting. So here it is 2019 and I have only just found it!! I think the actors are all superb! I wish it was more than just two series. Well done to all concerned. A really great and intelligent story.
