Does this review include spoilers? Maybe, of a kind...

Every time I expect the kids to do something "typically inane" they surprise me by stepping back and coming out with something above and beyond rather than ridiculous.

Every time I see one of the pro(an)agonists do something silly, I expect it to escalate beyond reasonable, as it seems to en every single other series I've watched recently... It doesn't... it stays firmly grounded in that person's honest desire to do what they feel is right and doesn't spiral out of control as I've seen it happen so often of late.

This series is right on par with Breaking Bad in terms of character relationship development!

Outstandingly heartwarming without unnecessary saccharine.
