    I don't like this... I like, like this.
    Every episode is emotionally a teeter totter.

    Andy (Uncle) is just a lovable Nair do well that really gets in his own way so consistently that you begin to wonder if it's on purpose.

    The familial bond grows throughout each episode and the musical interludes are extremely entertaining.

    The show deals with real life as well and real adult problems even though the focus is not there 100%. It deals with personal growth, being a single parent, personal demons, recovery and dating in the 21st century.

    Andy wears his heart on his sleeve and he's just such a lovable failure that you can't help but root for him no matter how convoluted his mind is

    Nick Helm and the additional actors are mostly seasoned pros that you would recognize from other episodes....

    I'm rewatching it after a few years and it's still one of the best things on.

    A real pleasure.
