This was at its best when it was soapy and silly. The two villains were great and I had fun with just how hard they went with orphan angst/birth secret drama. When the show was at its most overheated and ridiculous it really was a treat. When the show tried to be earnest and heartfelt I found it to be less successful. The main love line was totally unconvincing and while I can't deny how cute the young actors were the found family scenes with them just felt like filler to me.
