2 seasons: a few weeks of evenings, episodes of about 42 minutes, about 18 hours in all.
What might put you off
Rated TV-PG: a parent's death or loss. Worth a look first if you have very young kids.

Ava Gregory, their aunt, gets custody of her niece and nephews, and they move into her Californian home, in Summerland.
