    Caught the pilot last night and was quite impressed overall. I thought it was very strong. It feels like a show they could have made a 20 minute comedy out of but opted instead for 40 minutes and it is all the better for it. It's light, feel good and yet thought provoking as well. The characters are great and while some things come across as overly contrived, the rich hippy upstairs and the valet only too willing to hand out doctor's cars for excursions aside, the show feels pretty solid and it does need some of those contrivances to elevate it above a boring limited space drama. I thought the pilot was exceptionally well put together from the balance of humour, drama and serious subjects right through to initially introducing the characters. I'm looking forward to the next episode and I hope they can keep up this quality. It could be a great show.
