i love the line this walks between light (much of the family stuff) and bleakly srs bsns (where it all seems to be headed)

also i like that -- bad as the family are (especially the son) -- they do kind of like one another, and everyone else (including the supposed non-criminals) is p much worse

oddly enough -- as the plot is almost exactly the opposite (owing a huge amount of money not gaining same) -- the series it reminds me of most is meet the braithwaites

the mum (anu sinisalo)* and dad (carl-kristian rundman) are terrific, the son (antto orasmaa ) is a bit doughy and bland, the daughter (sanna toivanen) is a good actress but a bit too relentlessly radiant really (though it this actually works in the rellgious parts of her story)
*was also in BORDERTOWN
