– doctor who references but they’re not shoved in ur face
– a whole episode shot like an ep of the office
– character development
– like no REALLY character development that makes sense and feels authentic and develops both on and off screen
– healthy female friendships !!!!!!
– actually hilarious
– “we change together”
– FOUND FAMILY TROPE SO FCKIN HARD
– they take down corporations and CEOs and corrupt government people and basically all Capitalist Evils
– complex female characters
– tackles issues such as grief and addiction and regret and childhood abandonment but still manages to be lighthearted without trivialising (I’ve watched this show 100 times and I still can’t figure out how they Did That)
– I Hate When Mom And Dad Argue trope
– the shipping potential is ENDLESS
– Mark Sheppard plays a recurring character,,, a villain you love to hate who flirts with Everyone (especially Nate)
– the Christmas specials are spectacular
– there’s a murder mystery episode
– your heart will warm at the end of most every episode
– literally a Chicken Noodle Soup show,,, easy to watch, funny and heartwarming perfect for when u feel sad or ill
– honestly just go and watch it
