I had heard nothing about this show and just set my PVR to record all the new CBC shows of the summer. This was defo my favourite because it doesn't have a loud neurotic supposedly-funny girl-who-should-be-a-woman-but-can't-get-past-her-neuroses-and-ticks at the centre of it (which I mostly forgave Moonshine for (but not completely) and I certainly do not ever forgive Strays for transplanting from Kim's Convenience). Such a relief.
The central character, Sabi, is so compelling and charismatic that I watched in a glow of compassion/love. It's very odd when that happens.
I don't think this show is particularly intended to be funny, so unlike some reviewers, that wasn't a negative for me. I think it is intended to be thoughtful and poignant and gentle about tough situations and tough circumstances. I felt that and I liked it. I liked the thoughtful pace of the action.
I also love Sabi's fashion sense - they have style in everything.
I really hope they do NOT get a better comedic writer on the show. It was lovely as was.
