It was fine. Only very loosely based on the true events that inspire it. Lots of running around, but overall fairly enjoyable. My biggest complaint is that Sprinkles, the family's ferret, is brutally killed in the first episode and there is zero recourse or absolution offered at any point during the show. This was a needless detail added for no reason other than to make viewers uncomfortable; being fictional, I'd have liked very much to see some sort of explanation or justice for our poor little friend. However, viewers are offered no such comfort. An unfortunate turn of events for ferret lovers everywhere.
