Compelling characters, good actors, interesting topic. I wasn't convinced with the trailer, but gave the first episode a try and got hooked.

What is everyone's opinion?

im also kinda older, but i disagree here. in this show when push comes to shove, they [eventually] make the hard choices and have the hard conversations.

dude with parkinsons owns his illness conceding his independence. two dudes on the brink of the next level of their lives take the leap and adopt despite their fear. father and daughter accept the moms death and integrate that tragedy into their lives. successful daughter is confronted and owns her family responsibilities shes been ignoring.

all of this takes a level of confidence and maturity teens dont always have.
