Love this show can't wait for season 3

[@saturdayblissblogspotjoyce]

I love this show and it feels so at home because it is literally set at my hometown. It is funny show and it is also very refreshing to see Asian-Canadians rep tv. Hope I can meet you guys one day!

[@jessicak3654]

Omg. I'm Korean who wants to move to Canada in the future. This show gives me the positive feeling that I don't have to worry too much about racism , being korean immigrant there. Thank you for bring it up to the world. I'm so proud of you guys!

[@cookiebutter17]

I love this show because I am half Korean!!!!!!

[@movingpictures316]

I love this show because I'm not!!!!!!

[@SchnuffiJames]

As a Canadian living in Germany it was a little bit of home, I am sad it has been canceled.

[@jeffbrady6256]

It's a good fun show, the wife and enjoy it

[@andrewcee1399]

I gotta go there now

[@3992jae]

Appa speaks fluent English, NICE!

[@georgechilidis8446]

I enjoy the show and the cast is Canadian amazing 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@starbuckgirl6209]

I was just there today! The owner is so nice!

[@11matt11]

Great show. Can't wait for season two.

[@judythomas196]

This show is dope!!

[@PleatherGirl]

I had so much fun that day!

[@dennismcclain1931]

It's not a bad show for a CBC rendering.

[@Annthole66]

Appa is my favorite character. I love him so much. GREAT ACTING!!!!!!!!!!

[@flowerchildsmile]

[@josephinetyree1476]

[@no-body6794]

Amazing!

[@_.El._]

I am non Korean barely discovering this show and like it

[@DiepSpartan119]

I live in Toronto Markham but their store is like 1 hour to drive there

[@davidmehnert6206]

I no rite?!? Kim’s Inconvenience

[@bored1ca]

It was interesting (and rather sad) to notice that the graphic they used for the cast was the cast from the actual stage production and not the television series...

[@chsjenc]

This show somehow reminds me of old Korean Sitcoms back in 2000s...

[@x213ERx]

Don't forget Netflix 😁

[@szewei85]

Haha now i suddenly loving TV canada😄😆Better than the sitcom in down southern neighbour

[@Laurence0227]

Love this show though I am not a Korean Canadian (I am naturalized Taiwanese Canadian )
though my English is fine (because back in the 90's they like to hire Torontian white guys to man Taiwanese English cram schools so most Taiwanese whom speak good English in that generation speaks with a "white Canadian from Toronto" accent)
I literally turn into Appa (well expect the bolding part :P) when I am speaking French XD

[@aratasman77]

it's a brilliant show most of the time, and it has nothing to do with representing asians on tv (if you want to see a show about a certain race of people as a relief from the "normal", it really says more about your character to be honest).
this show is funny because of the good writing and jokes like poking fun at accents and bad english (heck we tease my mom about her bad english!) or difference in cultural norms or even inability of people to get over ancient (literally a century old) grudges!
over all a really funny show, good job guys

[@gatineausparks]

I would agree that it is a great show because it is funny.. great writing, great comedy.. anyone can relate to it. However, I disagree that wanting to see a show with specific races is pathetic or says something bad about your character. People want to see the real population represented on TV. Everyone, including white people get bored of seeing just white faces on tv all the time.

[@benblexbenblex]

Aratas Man "bad English" is something to laugh at? many would feel hurt

[@skatingcanuck9837]

The show is not poking fun at accents at all. The accents are a layer of authenticity in the actors' performances. The show is about family, identity, and giving a voice to a group that has been underrepresented.

[@NellieKAdaba]

Nice

[@velerieyeong3287]

I love appa!

[@johntheodore8047]

[@theoriginalchefboyoboy6025]

How come there's no bad weather/snow/cold weather in any of the episodes? Definitely makes it inauthentically Toronto.
And no Christmas episode for a Christian family? C'mon, bruh...

[@KillaSmit20789]

I like this show because its actually funny, weird in this garbage generation

[@영어공부-r4q]

USA Canada

[@justathoughtaway]

Wish they’ll have Filipino Canadian representation in the show for season 3 :)

[@ruvin7023]

I believe there's a filipino family snippet in an episode
