Great to see a little series that wasn't afraid to be itself.
If your shows and movies have to be PC box tickers with all subsequent cliches then steer well clear if this one as it is very much a Australian larrikin fun.
Quick overview is it's about several Christmas days of a very dysfunctional family focused on one son who moved to London and comes back every year.
It's very Aussie, somewhat 'wrong' in many ways and on many levels but that's it's charm. It may seem a bit dated being a decade old but it has stood the test of time. It's more chuckle funny than side splitting which works well as they haven't over tried which is also what makes it work.
