I recently saw this accidentally and devoured all 8 available episodes several times. I haven't laughed that hard in a long time. As far as sitcoms go, this is definitely one of my all time favourites, and it saddens me deeply that it didn't get a decent run. Personally, I think it's funnier than Friends and Will & Grace put together.

For me, the appeal of this show is the way it questions and deconstructs stereotypes and prejudices, instead of just enabling jokes at people's expense through them. Every episode imagines another scenario in which people's expectations and prejudices of one another lead to wrong assumptions and casual hurtful judgments of each other (as well as to hilarious misunderstandings). What I am most surprised about is how well this has aged, considering the subject matter.

And it does all that without being annoying about hitting you over the head with a "moral". The scripts are absolutely hilarious from start to finish. They have a classic screwball or comedy of errors feel to them, and jokes are built up and layered in a way that is worthy of one of my other favourites, Frasier.

The cast have great chemistry and fit their roles perfectly. You immediately like all of them and there is even some well drawn character development, as they get to know each other and grow closer and learn from each other, which is unusual for a sitcom. Alec Mapa has some of the best comic timing I've ever seen.

Overall this show is a heartwarming gem, and I shall return to its woefully short 8-episode run again and again.
