Comments by Susie [Rating: 8/10] Although I only knew Tatsuya from Tokio in this, I ended up watching the whole thing and really liked it. It was fun to watch the two families of different social status deal with new situations. I especially liked that since Tatsuo's character and his sister in the show both came from America, when they were learning about Japanese customs and lifestyles, we got to learn them, too.

Comments by Rio [Rating: 8/10] Most of the original cast is back, and the situations are just as complicated. This series focuses on the differences in values between a salaried man's family and that of a self-employed man.
