Reception
Carol Leong of The New Paper wrote that "Devotees of TCS sitcoms will enjoy the faintly absurd scenarios, the local humour and the sight of Jacintha playing it matronly."
Ong Sor Fern of The Straits Times wrote that the series has an "annoying share of well-educated actors trying to speak street English", and is "much too insipid to inspire many memories."
