    Too sweary and sad for the kids

    Is this really meant to be a comedy? The first series was amusing but if this first episode of season two is anything to go by, the programme makers have lost the plot.

    Ridiculously and annoyingly sweary - and no, swearing repeatedly at your children really isn't funny, in fact it verges on abusive. And I felt so sorry for the children being bullied and suffocated by the aggressive parents. Sometimes comedy walks a fine line taste-wise but in this case the line has been well and truly overstepped. Not enjoyable at all.

    SEASON TWO IS TOO DEPRESSING

    I absolutely loved the first season, it was heartwarming, sweet, and funny as hell. Then this season happened and it ruined the show for me. Why was it necessary to make the kids so much older ?? What was once a funny show is now sad and depressing. Everything Luke is going through is heartbreaking for anyone let alone a child and the way Paul is reacting is messed up. Their father son dynamic this season has completely soured me on the show.
