Keeping Up Appearances

AudienceAudience: 7.8

A status-conscious suburban housewife is determined to present herself as refined and socially important. Her efforts are repeatedly complicated by her embarrassed husband, working-class relatives, and nervous neighbors, creating a stream of awkward social situations and comic misunderstandings.

My take

You’ll likely enjoy this if you appreciate character-driven British sitcoms, dry humor, and social satire like Open All Hours; Not for you if repetitive situations or an overbearing central character quickly become tiresome.
