I started watching this week and it's cheesy but I like it. The accents are bad. They are trying to imitate the southern blue blood accent but very few people talk like that anymore. It's mostly older people (see Governor Henry McMaster for an example). I'm from SC and people don't talk like that.

I just finished it last night and liked it. Cheesy, but not too much. Chris Klein is a terrible actor and his accent was even worse! That almost turned me off at the beginning, but I’m glad I stuck with it. I enjoyed it besides him, lol. I hope there is another season. I didn’t realize it was a book, so maybe I’ll read those this summer. I also disliked Noreen at first, but she grew on me.

I'm still working my way through this, but I like it. I did laugh out loud at the white woman coming into the kitchen and teaching the southern black people how to cook seafood lmao.

That was the only eye-roll moment I remember! My grandpa in his 90’s would have been like, “you know nothing about this!” He still doesn’t trust my sister and I to make proper collards, and we’ve been making it with him for years. 🙄

I'm finally done with the season. I read some comments about Tyler being gay and watched the second half of the show looking for it in everything he did. I didn't get the vibe. I thought they were trying to make the little brother gay, but then he had all the love for Annie so I guess I was wrong there too. I thought that reporter was possibly the mom, but then I felt like there was a dig at Helen when she said if you were around as in something racially motivated. Like you were the other black woman in this small town and we were enemies not friends or something. But maybe that's way off base too.
