Schitt’s Creek - Coming up Roses
I can’t believe that it’s taken me so long to properly discuss this show but here we go, it’s finally time. As the title suggests, this one’s all about the wonderful Canadian sitcom ‘Schitt’s Creek’. For those who don’t know it, ‘SC’ aired for six seasons from 2015 to 2020 and I, like many others, discovered and got hooked right in the middle of lockdown/COVID. Without spoiling it too much, I’ll just say that (it’s great) and that it follows the rich Rose family, Moira, Johnny and their adult son and daughter, David and Alexis. The show is about the family moving to the small town of Schitt’s Creek (that Johnny actually bought for David years before) after being scammed by their financial adviser and losing most of what they own. First off, the cast is truly brilliant as the iconic Catherine O’Hara ( Home Alone, Beetlejuice, Best in Show ) plays Moira, Eugene Levy ( Splash, American Pie ) plays Johnny while his real son, Dan Levy ( Happiest Season ), plays David and Annie Murphy
