This show qualifies as a guilty pleasure. We all need them. It's squirmy, off-colour, nasty, and self-aware -- which are the requirements of course -- otherwise you wouldn't feel guilty watching it. Jayne Eastwood is well cast, and she fearlessly goes for it with lots of attitude and a foul mouth. There's lots of good supporting characters along the way. The show dives in further than most older person situation comedies, and it does not get hung up on the typical cliches of the genre. It's playful and packs in a few smarts too. Plus, you can binge and cringe the complete eight-episode season in just 40 min. Cheers.
