Cute and cliched

I read the plot summary, and was pretty excited off the bat. It's not often that gay series feature kids. I was a bit disappointed, then, to find that most of the plot revolves around Jerry not being out to his parents or the other parents at daycare. You could have replaced the setting with a high school kid struggling to come out and much of the dramatic tensions would have been the same, minus Kai being a cute background prop that actually doesn't do much. It's almost like a bait-and-switch. They lured us in with the adorable child, then gave us a very standard coming-out-to-parents checklist of tropes.

Honestly, a lot of my goodwill is hinging on the cliffhanger they left us on for season 2. I really hope they lean into the drama and add in more humor or snark. They can't keep depending on the kid to save everything. They'd also do well to develop the side characters, who we really know nothing about. A bit ironic that the series focuses so much on Jerry's biological parents rather than the found family that Jerry and Damian have already surrounded themselves with.
