Just plain silly

Offered on Acorn TV, so I decided to watch the entire first season just to see if it improved. The main character was a ditz and none of the other characters were especially likable. I am stunned that it lasted 3 seasons. I sure won't bother watching anymore.

Uff Da

Horrendous acting for the most part, but liked the story line enough to stick with it. Main character AND her daughter both do that Diane Keaton thing (murmurations, uhs, uh-huhs, mmms) constantly. Main facial expression is this rictus grin, inserted whenever embarrassment, error, faux pas, actual engagement is called for.

Awful

Poor writing, a plot that doesn't make much sense and an irritating theme song throughout. I couldn't even make it to the end of the first episode.

Corny but a lovely story

This is the type of sweet show that is a guilty pleasure. The acting is solid, the script makes me laugh and cry, there are love stories, animals, women friends. There are serious conversations about life and death. This isn't for everyone, but if you liked shows like Offspring or Rita (Danish), then you may like this.

Dumb, Dumb, Dumb

The writers have gone overboard trying to make this woman appear DUMB. Nobody would try to vacuum up streamers. Nobody is that stupid. Surprised it got a second and third season but then again Offspring has 7 seasons and the main character in that series is very similar. Must be what Australians like to watch.
