They have smartphones. But they still rely on alarm clocks. And not just any alarm clock, powered alarm clock. Cute. That might have worked for *Home Alone*. For a 2019 TV series, that is just sloppy writing. And the houses are like the ones in US shows, even if that is France. Yea, the bad design and crowded furniture, that is the French touch. It keeps going better and better. The average French woman would go about with a bra no matter how hot outside. But this average mother will ask her husband to touch her breast on the curve, at the hour when every breeding neighbor is sending the kids to school. The main character is lazy, particularly dim, and underworked. She might get a second job to make more money. But making money is a sin once you have a big home and two cars. She might learn to get some new skills. But that would imply work and effort. So she takes the extra time to weave conspiracies. Because she is troubled for not having anything valid to complain about. The series is trying to be popular with both sides: it has a lesbian daughter, and a transsexual daughter, the family is so Left Wing perfection. Both parents are working. For the Right Wing they have the woman who is mostly at home. She is a good breeder and ready to make more children. The true blessing comes with the marriage. Only that makes more obvious the propaganda. Gay teen-ages are not very pop…
