It reminds me so much of sex education, not to bring up a debate on which is better because you should be able to like both shows but of course it's hard not to compare with similar titles. I'd say this is more like a sitcom version to sex education. Everything that happens in the show seems like a genuine representation of what happens in real life, but sometimes the dialogue seems short lived so you move on from it quickly, but that's understandable considering the runtime is only 30 minutes. I think it's a "surface show", despite addressing sensitive issues you can watch it without turning your brain on and have a laugh because it doesn't delve deeply into them.
Despite the bad things that happen or characters go through, it still keeps an optimistic vibe, like it's a happy show. Depressing feels like a strong word for this but it doesn't get depressing; it's not a show were the characters get sad then you get sad too. The characters are lovable, so is the soundtrack. My only problem, which isn't a big one, is it feels written, it doesn't get you immersed in the show, you don't get lost in it, like as you're watching the show you actually do know you're watching the show consciously and subconsciously, and usually shows like that don't leave a lasting impression. I've never been able to properly explain this but sometimes you'll thoroughly enjoy the show then forget about it until you hear a new season's coming out soon and get excited like oh that show, I loved that show.
Buttt it's very promising, it's the type of show that could become a fan favorite if it went on for 7+ seasons and still managed to be funny all the way, like a new era of sitcoms the way the 90's or early 2000's were, without trying to be an imitation or new version of them. Unfortunately, shows easily get canceled these days if they aren't doing crazy numbers so I hope it doesn't fall into the same fate.
