David French makes his characters sound so much like Newfoundlanders that you have to keep reminding yourself that they are actually living in Toronto and have been for many years.
It is very disconcerting to hear the characters referring to themselves as being 52, but getting old and in fact dying. Is this a reflection of a time or a class? I certainly thought my parents were older than I feel now at the same age, but I wonder how old they felt?
Great cast - Diane d'Aquila, Jeff Lillico, Eric Peterson, and Kenneth Welsh - all fantastic actors.
