Schitt's Creek (2015)

Schitt’s Creek is a character-driven fish-out-of-water comedy about the Rose family — former wealthy magnate Johnny, his dramatic ex-soap-star wife Moira, and their entitled adult children David and Alexis — who suddenly lose their fortune and are forced to relocate to the one remaining asset they own: the small, downtrodden town of Schitt’s Creek. What begins as a string of culture-shock jokes and awkward encounters slowly becomes a warm, sharply written exploration of family, identity, and community. Viewers can expect witty, often cringe-inducing dialogue and eccentric performances (Moira’s melodrama and David’s sartorial angst are scene-stealers), plus an ensemble of oddball locals who repeatedly upend the Roses’ expectations. Watching the series delivers a mix of laugh-out-loud moments and surprisingly tender emotional payoffs as each character is stripped of privilege and learns to rebuild relationships and a sense of self. It’s a comedy that balances sharp satire of wealth and celebrity with genuine heart, making it as comforting as it is hilarious — ideal for audiences who enjoy smart, heartfelt sitcoms with strong character arcs.
