Why it’s a Weeknight Watch
With almost no lasting buzz and middling reviews (38% on Rotten Tomatoes), 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 anyone who wants a laugh.
- The mood
- Light and funny.
- The pace
- One season: easy to finish in a weekend or two, short, snackable episodes, about 3 hours in all.
- What might put you off
- Rated TV-14. Probably too much for younger kids.
- It was cancelled, so the story may not get a proper ending.
The Goodwin siblings return home after their father's death, and unexpectedly find themselves poised to inherit a vast fortune – if they adhere to their late father's wishes. Where there's a will, there's a way. And when that will's worth more than 20 million dollars, you can bet someone's going to find a way to get the cash.
