If so, why and who is your favourite character.

My favourite programme in the whole world.

Rafagirl · 10/02/2021 01:56

@TheSoapyFrog haha this is me, “bebe” I am constantly pronouncing it that way now and it’s driving my partner crazy 😜 I can’t help myself, think he might leave me😂 Also I love all the characters, thoroughly enjoying the show, the comedic timing is spot on and the acting is brilliant. I am on the final season and just watched the episode where the crows have been released at moria’s premier caw caw haha I will be sad when it comes to an end. I think looking back, at first alexis annoyed me slightly with all her hand movements/gestures, which I grown to love and her character development how much she’s changed and her fantastic performance of a little bit alexis 😂 I have actually binged watched the entire show, only started it a week and half ago and that’s me on the final season. Would highly recommend the show but I know it won’t be everyone’s cuppa tea.

So hard to choose between Alexis and David!
Eww David!! GrinGrin

SionnachGlic · 10/02/2021 02:36

Moira...with her 'bebe' & affected pronunciations...so funny with her girls (wigs) & her clothes are just wow...

I thought it wasn't my cup of tea at first but in the nick of time something had me laughing...& anything that makes me laugh is gold in this lockdown...

@LastDuchessFerrara

You can't judge a 6 season TV series on the first 20 minutes! Had you stuck with it you might have realised that these "spoiled idiots" were about to embark on a journey of self discovery that resulted in them realising how much they loved each other Smile

I loved all 4 Roses.

I had to make several attempts to get through season 1 but after that was hooked.

That pivotal speech by Johnny in the restaurant with their old friends brought a tear to my eye.

Rafagirl · 10/02/2021 02:44

I want to get this sleepsuit in tribute to moira’s “bebe” haha

I know what you mean at the beginning I was thinking hmm not sure about this and I heard it had won so many awards ? But a couple episodes in and I was hooked. Going take my time finishing the last of season 6. (Who am I kidding will probably be done in a day or two).

I can't choose between them because they are great because of the relationship.

Although I have a soft spot for Twila.

David!

Love it, and had been told by my friend that it was a slow burn, but to stick with.

The first episode is completely unindicative of the rest of the season/show.

I love them all, but Moira probably edges it for me. No-one in our house pronounces any way other than bébé now.

The ‘fish out of water’ plot isn’t original, but the show itself is.

It’s so refreshingly sweet and accepting.

Nitflux · 10/02/2021 03:27

Loved it, although it did take a second watch and a few episodes to get into for me. Moira’s my favorite. Best scene is when she sings Danny Boy at the funeral Grin

Five67Eight · 10/02/2021 03:28

I also love Annie Murphy’s description of Alexis’s signature hand gesture - a T-Rex playing honky tonk 🦖 Grin

Five67Eight · 10/02/2021 03:29

Best scene is when she sings Danny Boy at the funeral Grin

OMG the delay and mouth movements 🤣🤣

Nitflux · 10/02/2021 03:34

@Five67Eight so funny! I sing it a la Moira to my husband quite frequently Grin

MrsTerryPratchett · 10/02/2021 03:37

Eww David.

So many good lines but, "you get murdered first" is making me giggle tonight.

MRSGGG · 10/02/2021 03:44

Yes and David - fab show and easy to binge on..anyone else cry at the end?

blisstwins · 10/02/2021 03:57

Alexis. Ewww.

Rocket3000 · 10/02/2021 04:05

My favourite show. DH says David reminds him of of me in too many ways, which probably isn't a compliment but I love David so I'm fine with that! Also love Alexis, they both make me belly laugh

TryingNotToPanicOverCovid · 10/02/2021 04:12

We loved it! Some great lines and something different to watch. It satisfies on so many levels - the proper character development, intelligent writing, witty, gets "people" right even though the premise is so outlandish. One of the best thigs weve watched this last year.

I was originally put off by the name, and yes told to watch more than the first episode - and so glad we did. 🥰

veeeeh · 10/02/2021 04:12

Insomnia post. It is chewing gum for the eyes, and I enjoy it enormously.

I cannot believe how alike in looks Dad and Son are. Very enjoyable in lockdown. Not much attention required!

GammyLeg · 10/02/2021 04:14

I loved Moira and kept watching just for her parts. But I found it pretty boring overall, especially the love interest storylines. I got through two seasons and then gave up.

pictish · 10/02/2021 04:17

Love it. Hilarious. David is undoubtedly my favourite but they’re all brilliant. Lighthearted, warm and genuinely funny...perfect viewing at the moment. We’re in season 4.

ZaraW · 10/02/2021 04:26

I loved it. David and Moira were my favourites.

NerrSnerr · 10/02/2021 04:31

I love it. I love them all but Moira is my favourite. I was so sad when it ended and think I'll watch it again soon. It made me very happy.

Five67Eight · 10/02/2021 04:48

I cannot believe how alike in looks Dad and Son are.

At the risk of stating the obvious, since most Schitt’s fans already know this - but they are actually father and son (plus Twyla - sister/daughter).

Eugene/Johnny isn’t getting much loving on this thread, but he is fab, too.

And gotta love Roland for sheer grimness factor, reminiscent of his Something About Mary role.

Five67Eight · 10/02/2021 04:51

And Moira is the Mom from Home Alone.
