Love, Nina is listed here as a drama, but it has definite comic elements. I would go so far as to call it a comedy. Perhaps it is listed as a drama because it does include a few adult themes, though not explicitly so.
I was really charmed by this whimsical short series, so much so that I am going to read the book it is based on. The characters are quirky but not in a stereotypical way. The children come close to be stereotypical, I suppose, alternating between being sitcom sassy kids and something more recognizable in real life, but it all works for me.
Mean things are said about some characters, though usually true, but overall the odd household is a tolerant one, and love rests in the daily interactions and there is a warm heart at the core of the series. This isn't message humor, so just let it wash over you and wait for the smiles to come.
