Why it’s a Weeknight Watch

With a short run with a modest audience and little lasting buzz, it's a mixed bag. Fine if it's on; don't plan your night around it.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it: Made for families.
The mood: Feel-good.
The pace: 3 seasons: a few weeks of evenings, short, snackable episodes, about 17 hours in all.
What might put you off: Rated TV-14. Probably too much for younger kids.

Based on Karen Kingsbury's Redemption novel series, Elizabeth and John Baxter and their five adult children go through various life learning journeys. The strength of family bonds will be tested time and time again. Love and their evangelical Christian faith allow them to find each other.
