Raising Dion

Amazing, Beautiful and Genius. Originality with deep routes of cultural, social, economical and sheer human obstacle. Adulting is never easy, nor is childhood this comes together with great integrity. Visually flawless, with decent tempo, structure and story arc fulfillment. We could knit pick at the little things, but why bother when you can sit back and enjoy. Waiting for Netflix to approve season 2 of this binge worthy delight.

A story about a young boy with unusual abilities & the struggles the mother has. Seems like an interesting plot and it is. But!!! The kid is a spoilt brat whi is basically undisciplined and uncontrollable. The mother is an emotional timebomb continually having meltdowns everytime she cant get her own way. Her best friend is a childlike moron woth OCD. And the young boys isdues seem to be a sideline to the mothers problems. Great plot, but more like a soapie! If you dont like annoying characters, then tune out.

Ok I have given this a 10 because I'm reviewing it from a different perspective.

It also has done something very unique and special. Please let me explain. No other series has allowed me to watch a TV show with my children which we are all able to enjoy. My children are so invested and intrigued by what will happen next. To experience a TV show with them is magical. They are full of anticpation, theories and we discuss it at meal times.

To see Thier faces light up when we decide to watch the next episode is really something special.

I wish more TV shows would do this. Normally they watch thier cartoons a d then we watch our shows. But now we are enjoying it together.

For this reason I'm giving it a 10, no other show has done this before and therefore a 10 is well deserved. Thank you.

The storyline is great. Setting is great. Relatable characters. So hard to find kid friendly shows without eyerolls at the cheezy content. Great series to watch with Family.

It's more of a kids show but also for adults. It has reminded me of Stranger Things but not as good. I watched all of the first season but could bear only the first 3.5 episodes of the second season. The first season has some original ideas but the novelty wears off in the second season with no new ideas or concepts. Acting is OK including the kids and I thought Alisha Wainwright looked stunning in the first season. My rating of 7 is only for the first season. I would rate the second season with 5 stars only if I could rate each season separately but as a whole.
