Yeh Meri Family (2018– ) User Reviews (397)

Hats off TVF, made me cry..!!

[kalani-rahul · 10/10 · 21 July 2018]

I binged watched all the episodes. I literally had tears in my eyes after watching the last episode. TVF has raised the benchmark. Everything is upto point be it Direction, Music, Casting, Acting, Location, Props everything. They have taken care and made the set look exactly like 90's. Be it the doors of the house or be it the electric buttons, be it currency notes everthing they have taken care of. They have even taken care of the water bottle which was used by the kids in 90's.

Direction and writing is just amazing. And the background music and songs they just get stuck in your mind, be it the title song or be it other songs. Just went back to my childhood with lots of nostalgic feelings. Keep making series like this TVF..!!!

A must watch!

[shweta-98159 · 10/10 · 19 July 2018]

I have watched both the episodes, and it is so refreshing to watch such series after a long time, It would remind you of your childhood vacation, first crush, friends etc. waiting for another episodes .

A emotional nostalgia ride that guarantees smile on the face and on heart :)

[apbhatia-72603 · 10/10 · 21 July 2018]

I thought TVF was pretty much dead and focusing on the The Screen Patti more rather than the parent channel. But I was wrong and cant be more happy to be worng. Ye Meri Family was a fresh breath of air on this channel with a super amzing cast and brings you so much nostalgia from the 90s . It also reminds me about how I felt when I left my family to pursue my highe education. It ends with a bang and leaves me with all the 90s , some tears in my eyes and a big smile on my face and in my heart. I am so happy that I watched it . Thank You a ton TVF.

Nostalgasm!!

A Web Series Actually Worth Watching

[choudharypulkithotmail · 10/10 · 20 July 2018]

Remember The Days When You Were A Kid. The 90's Childhood Was The Best Part Of Our Life. This Web Series Will Surely Entertain You If You Were Also A 90's kid. No Overacting, No Fiction. Tells The Truth About The Childhood Of 90's Kids.

TVF is the NetFlix of India

[neehar-0007 · 10/10 · 20 July 2018]

The best web series that India has ever produced.. TVF is definitely the NetFlix of India

Another good show

[apoorvclane · 10/10 · 20 July 2018]

From the first episode you get nostalgia of 90s. And then you start connecting with the show. With each episode their family somehow reminds you yours. Tvf is again back with top notch show content wise. They should start monetize their shows. It high time because if we want top content and feed up with TV sets and then stop ranting and then we could subscribe them .

easily in top of my favourite webseries.

[sadikjadav · 10/10 · 20 July 2018]

It is like replica of our generation's life(90's). You will appreciate more if you are from 90's. and if you are not still you will enjoy this series a lot. must watch. just watch first episode. it's on YouTube. i bet you. you will binge watch it.

Simple yet the most touching story

[nishchayjainjain · 10/10 · 21 July 2018]

One of the best from TVF. You have done some awesome work here TVF. A story to which everyone can relate. It made me remember the good old days. And the ending was so good , it made me emotional. This is just the one you can't ignore. Go watch it guys.

Best show!! Made me cry. Must watch it.

[Shashwat_singh · 10/10 · 21 July 2018]

I love the honesty, simplicity, truthfulness, & sabse jyada relatablity!! I rated this show on the basis of first two episodes but i can rate this 100/10 if there's option after watching all episodes!!

Simply Nostalgic

[madhukar30 · 6/10 · 17 July 2020]

The Story revolves around a 12 year old boy Harshu, and his family set in the 1990s Gujarat. It was a time when cities were just towns and owning a car was such a big deal. A great age of innocence without much sophistication that exists in the world today. It is also a nostalgic reminder for any kid growing up in the 90s on how the schools, teachers, neighbours, society, family, television programs and cars to name a few, were back then.

Much of the episodes are based on family life, that is interlaced with problems and happiness with factors involving Envy, support, emotions, Challenges, anger, love, Desire, teen issues and misunderstandings which form the backbone of the web series. Acting & all technical aspects in the making of the web series are just about par. The making and production design will remind us that we are watching a soap opera all the time.

Nothing is outstanding in the web series albeit the nostalgic factor. Characters are pretty much straight forward, that one can see in everyday life. But Yeh Meri Family is definitely worth a watch to tingle the nostalgic part of our brain and remind us about the bygone days. For youngsters out there, the show will give an idea of how urban people lived in the 1990s.

Spoiled the expectation in season 2

[RBindra-15135 · 2/10 · 19 May 2023]

What the garbage they have created in the name of season 2.

I am following TVF since the first season of Pitchers and became fan after watching Pitchers, Yeh Meri Family, Panchayat etc. But after watching Pitchers season 2 and Yeh meri family season 2, it feels TVF is on wrong path from last some series.

Couldn't tolerate 1st episode, so skipping the season, I hope they will come with some great season as Monsoon of 90s.

Unable to relate with any character of the show, wasted Rajesh. Kumar. The kids are not similar to any kids who used to stay around us in the 90s.

This' winter season could have so many cool moments to present, but totally disappointed. Only 1 question for TVF, Why Sameer Saxena has not directed this ?

I just wanted to run something on youtube while i was eating .... then i completed whole season

[anish9207 · 10/10 · 22 July 2018]

Just when i thought that TVF is done and no good shows will be coming out of it, I saw the promo of this show and it made my opinion certain to see a show built on such a cliche topic.

Then one fine day just to have something while breakfast i started the first episode on youtube and the next thing i know that it's 5 pm and I've completed whole season !!

my advice : start watching it only if you have consecutive 3-5 hrs of time.

A must watch for a 90s kid

[chinmayaswain · 10/10 · 22 July 2018]

For all the people who were born in late 80s or early 90s this is a must watch. It will make you miss your childhood a little bit more than you already do. They have gotten all the bits which will make you take a trip down the memory lane. The feeling of nostalgia will take over and you will definitely cherish memories of the simpler times. The acting is terrific. The plot of each episode is well thought. The father-son, brother-brother, mother-daughter, brother-sister, mother-son moments make you think of your own childhood days. The crush, the bestfriend, the grumpy tuition teacher, all the parts are well played. In my opinion the show creators have just nailed the childhood of a 90s kid in this seven series episode.

A huge throwback to the golden period!

[vgaurav-86138 · 10/10 · 22 July 2018]

The serial buys its essence from the conservative family culture of 90s and represents the way of life from the eyes of a growing teenager and his ideas,realizations and bonding with each other. It shines with the brimming creativity of directors as they make the family so relatable that one and everyone can relate something to the show and its characters. The show is filled with ebullience and is a definitive must watch for nostalgia and TVF brought back the quality content like Pitchers once again. Cheers!

Loved it. On rewatch now.

[pratikshya-mishra72 · 10/10 · 22 July 2018]

I watched it after reading a tweet about it. Then when I was in the second episode a friend recommended it to me just the moment I was about to recommend the same to her. Just like telepathy. I knew this adorable story of a 12 year old Harshu and his family in The Summer of '98 was very special one. Being a 90's kid, I could relate to each and every detail here. The siblings' fights was so exactly similar down to the very argument on who had to bring the clothes from the terrace and fill up the bottles with water and put them in the fridge. I could relate to the fact that as kids we all think our parents are so not cool till that moment when we realize otherwise. Planning with friends, being the obedient one when parents fight, and sneaking around the kitchen to find something to eat- this web series took me back to my childhood and relive it all. It brought a smile to my face and that smile stayed there for the entire 35 minute long episode. Sometimes I cried overwhelmed by the immense nostalgic moments and endearing scenes. This 7 episode series has found a place in my heart. I would recommend it to everyone who have lived in the 90s. We live life in retrospect and nostalgia. This one offers lots of that. I sincerely hope that there is a Season 2 to this amazing series. Mona Singh as the mother was my ultimate favorite among the cast. Mostly because I could almost see my mother in her character- easily venting her frustration and anger, easily shouting at whoever is in the scene and then also easily breaking down when it all gets too much to handle. She was so adorable in the saree and that messy bun mothers have while making aloo tikkis and halwas. Love personified.

Simple Emotional Humor Beautiful

Nostalgia up up up !!!!

[anupam-p-iitd · 10/10 · 22 July 2018]

It will refresh your memories of childhood if you are born in 80s or 90s. A great blend fight and love that we encountered during our childhood with our elder brother. Sweet memories :)

BEST SHOW IN INDIA OR MAYBE THE WHOLE WORLD.PERIOD.

[dheerajsachdeva90 · 10/10 · 22 July 2018]

This is not just a show.This is a time machine.Must watch for everyone. 90s kid or not this will give you happiness and tears.The cast and crew has done a tremendous job.TVF hats off.I was cursing you guys for not giving us PITCHERS 2 but this is way above that.Thanks for giving me my childhood back.Please don't take it away from me by ending this in only 7 episodes.There are many possible stories to make more episodes.

Harshu in the Middle

[mehtarohit87 · 6/10 · 19 September 2018]

When the feeling of 90s nostalgia starts to wash off in an episode or two, I believe, one starts to realize that what we have here is a medley of Malcolm in the Middle and Mother India. And the creators aren't shy about it either. However, I don't think this brazen remixing should be confused with creativity. Because once the clihed tropes settle in, you are left with the crux of the content. This is where the test for the writers begin.

I think the core stories are quite interesting because they connect with a sense of realism for a lot of 20s and 30s something in India who have access to filmmaking platforms and networks now, finally. While this is a great thing for Indian cinema and TV, it also raises the bar for originality. We cannot complain our whole lives about lack of originality in Indian films and then repeat the same mistakes when given a chance.

Also, the urge to connect with the tropes and styles that define the show is strong among the creators. Connection to Mother India is obvious. The foundational structure and style of Malcolm of the Middle becomes evident too very soon. Once you see it, you cannot unsee how much they influence the show. But, I am troubled more by the lack of subtlety in making these connections. I think the writers need to respect their audience and tone down on the cinematic and nostalgic references. They need to be there but not in our faces.

Unless, Yeh Meri Family moves to a subtler style, this show will become one of the many things that happened on Netflix. If they want it to be remembered, they need to go deeper into the emotional journey of becoming a teenager in India and the commonalities with kids growing up today all over the world. This transcendence can make it a great show, which it has potential to be. Will the creators realize this? That's a different story.

PS. Don't judge an Indian show or film by its ratings these days. Audiences can be quite monolithic when it comes to tastes.

Nostalgic 90s

[chandrabhanusolanki · 9/10 · 20 July 2018]

This show is like diving into a sea of 90s and taking out every pearl of that time. Summer holidays which was really a festival at that time as study pressure got zero. The show explained the bonding of a family in a quite unique way. I can assure you, you will not only watching the episodes but also reliving the memories.Comics and Shaktimaan forever.

India's NETFLIX
