Been binging the show since I found it on Acorn. But confess that when I feel the need to turn it off for a bit, it's ALWAYS due to my disgust at the main character, Lisa. She's a completely unlikable spoiled holier-than-thou character that frequently ruined being able to just give over to sheer delight in the whole series.
The characters are well developed, written and excellently acted across the board, even the vile main one. The different characters, plots and relationships in the different seasons help keep it fresh. Although I really did love Sue (mother of main character). However, it did allow for Baz to get somewhat better and more interesting storylines front and center. Sad to see Bianca go but felt it was probably time, as her stories kept getting recycled.
Dan is, of course, the unsung hero in all of this. He's been nagged and trampled on and generally just used as a punching bag by a wife, Lisa, who becomes increasingly unhinged and selfish. By the end of season 5 I was actually hoping she met an unappetizing end. No such luck lol. Baz and Dan's relationship is truly the jewel of the entire show.
We'll see what season 6 brings us to wrap it all up.
