I can definitely understand people being put-off by the almost aggressive positivity in the show, but I do think it has enough realistic conflict and struggle in it to balance things out, and it handles both well. I can’t comment on outside perspectives on the show like yours, but I will say it doesn’t change a whole lot from the themes that seemed to bother you, so take that for whatever it’s worth. I do hope you’re able to enjoy it, though. There aren’t many shows like it.
