Nina Li Coomes The Atlantic 06/28/2023

3/5

Sheri K @TaeTaeH Jan 5 Absolutely loved it. Lovely relationships beginning, fun watching the team freshen up the house. The speeches as someone asks another to leave with them are way too long. Otherwise a wonderful show. Wish it had English overdub! See more Read all reviews
