    After finding himself suddenly bankrupt the formerly wealthy Johnny Rose, his soap-opera star wife Moira and two entitled adult children, are forced to move to the town they bought as a joke and take up residence in its rundown motel.

    Schitt’s Creek isn't without its merits but for much of this first season the writing and characters are all too predictable to elicit little more than the odd chuckle. Fortunately these characters do show some signs of becoming more rounded and interesting towards the end of the season meaning that, even though there still aren’t a huge amount of truly laugh out loud moments, I hold out hope that this show can evolve into something worth sticking with…    … Expand

    This first season is predictable and awkward. It seems like a slower version of Arrested Development with a third of the jokes. I hope this show gets better from here because it has potential.

    Daniel Levy has a confident comedic voice and a knack for biting dialogue, which can only mature along with the series, especially as we get to know the town and the character more. There is room for improvement--luckily, there will be a second season to work on that.

    Around the fourth or fifth episode of Schitt’s Creek, the family’s behavior starts to become a smidge less predictable: David decides to sell his pricey wardrobe; Alexis finds herself attracted to a bearded environmentalist; Johnny and Moira display genuine affection for each other. These moments signal the small-town comedy just might have room to grow.

    It's very funny, beautifully played, sometimes touching and, though its premise is familiar--rich family loses money--quite its own animal.
