Kindness is very hard to write. Most shows land on schmaltz when they aim for kindness.

Gotta say though, in 2020 context, the whole premise feels like elites letting themselves off too easy. A real-life version would have some tawdry Wall Street corruption for the rich family and an opioid epidemic in the small town.

The David subplot with the Rose Apothecary is bugging me randomly because I don’t think stores like that even work in upscale downtowns, let alone shitty towns. Weird glitch in the escapism.

I've always attributed the Apothecary to being some sort of, I dunno, "inside joke?" On a par with the size of the menus at Tropical Cafe...or indeed..."Tropical" Cafe to begin with.

Tropical cafe is reasonable. I’ve seen such places almost everywhere

Of course, but they're called "Town Diner" or "Meg's" or some such. There's nothing tropical about the decor or the town. And, again, the menus are hilarious. While we're at it, the town also sports a full-blown vetinary practice.

Well it’s also a rural town so a farm vet practice fits...

He's clearly running a domestic pet practice (my dad was a farm vet - BIG difference).

There’s one episode where they score a bunch of raw milk from his farm clients... they’re kinda pretending he’s both at once I think

Yes! Thanks for reminding me. Knew there was some sort of farm related thing he had done. But he's also boarding cats, etc. And believe me, farm vets don't have wear white coats and work in an office on Main St., or in an office at all, really.
