My personal opinion:
I liked this show so much. I liked that all the truth and the situations that can be met in the real life were shown as realistic as possible.
Even if there were a lot of negative reviews on the internet, I truly think that this show is a very good one.
It has 8 seasons, the ninth will be ready in September.
But even if there are 8 seasons, I wasn't bored at all.
