I never read the book that this show was based on, nor saw the original series which so many commenters make reference to. That said, on seeing this for the first time I love it! While I understand the comments about tokenism (for the first season anyway), just consider it an update for more modern audiences that does no harm to the plot.
I could say a lot more about the acting, which is excellent, and the scripts, which are acceptable- understand that it's not supposed to be gripping drama. It's a story about a fun-loving family and their goofy neighbors, a plot that has been done a million times already, but in this case it's done in a way that is very entertaining. More seasons, please.
