    A soapy no stone left unturned mess.
    Set in what has got to be a made up idyllic always sunny place where no one works for a living yet can flutter in massive open plan kitchens with entire roof skylights! Some acting talent absolutely wasted on a extremely lazy dialogue. I've never seen worse from James Nesbit and Sarah parish... So much is happening throughout yet the constant question is what are they actually doing. It's takes the mind some catching up to put the pieces together and even then it's not really that eventful. Team Rockets Jesy and James from Pokemon making that spectacular entrance is just the cherry on this giant mushy cake LMAO

    Ill praise it for reaching so far it's touching the Southern Hemisphere and congratulate everyone who's completed this 1000 piece jigsaw puzzle.
