STOP EVERYTHING YOU ARE DOING AND GO WATCH THIS SHOW.
Beautiful, Simple and heart warming, this show is one emotional roller-coaster. I've been awed, shocked and surprised, crying and smiling to myself. Loving it.

It's very rare to feel amazed and fall in love with the show just by watching it's pilot, this is one of them. Two episodes down so far and it has given two amazing and shocking ends, and i just can't wait how it will turn out.
Trust me, Go watch it and you will not regret it. :)
