To add on to that, I think the episodes and moments, especially in the second season, devoted to growing each character really help balance out the sheer chaos of the show. Watching them evolve and mature made me cry more than once this season. I can’t wait to do it again in season three.
I only watched the first two episodes, but watching this show was like experiencing a panic attack. Does it ever get less anxiety-triggering?
There are moments of calm, but the show is very much about the chaos of the family and the kitchen.

“Fishes” followed by “Forks” was the best example of this. Chaos followed by a calm you feel you’ve EARNED.
