I like this review and I agree with you on many points - most notably being a bit tired of this iteration of Nicole Kidman. I did find it interesting as a hk expat myself to see how we are presented in fiction however. Also, random note, although I do not have live in help, it’s actually not really a sign of wealth here, as you said. Many middle class families have it as the wages for helpers are reaaally low, and hk wages are quite high, so it’s often a money saving technique.

Thanks for the clarification!

For the most part I agree with you. I was unimpressed.

Each episode gets better

So far there's zero reason for it to take place in Hong Kong
The plot can be set in anywhere and it works perfectly fine
