Featured review
Worthwhile watching
This is a wonderful series I've caught on INSP for the last 2 years. The acting is superb and the storyline, terrific. The main characters, Mae, her daughter Grace, and her daughter-in-law all portray wonderful character development over time. The children grow up before your eyes as well. It's heart-warming and full of vintage memories of very tough, yet good times - evoking similar stories my parents often told me of the Great Depression.
Light a fire in the fireplace on a cool autumn evening, sit back, put your feet up, and make the world go away for awhile; you won't be wasting your time.
