Almost Family

Finally a great show Nothing to do with singing or taking off a mask Thank you Fox

I'm on the fence with this new series. It has an interesting premise but I can't figure out if it wants to be a drama or a broad comedy (and if it is a broad comedy, I'm out of here). The actors are certainly able to produce dramatic characters, and there are moments in this pilot that prove that, but both the Julia and the Roxy characters veer towards caricature rather than full bodied people. (Emily Osment has some pretty serious singing talent, though, as does Brittany Snow.) I hope the series self corrects, but, at this point, I give the series a 5 (on the fence) out of 10. {Comedy? Drama?}

It's good ASF I don't understand where all the hate comes from 😂 I feel like those are boring people or people that have no sense of humor. I find the show is adorable and funny, and has heart. It's not something award deserving of anything. But it's a fun watch.

I see a lot of potential for this show-there's a good mix of drama and comedy without them glossing over the whole Beckley indiscretion. So I hope it continues in its streak.

Glad to have found this show on Hulu! Only 3 episodes so far and I've binge watched them and have enjoyed them all!!
