In the clutter of endless dramas, comedies and family feuds, this adult comedy on parenting seems to have hit the right emotion with the audience, especially parents of young kids.

While there’s no striking reaction from the viewers yet, overall, the show seems to have created a good fan following with its first two pilot episodes. On Twitter, people are already talking about Martin Freeman and Daisy Haggard’s performance, along with how relatable the concept of the show is.

One fan posted, “And I just enjoyed watching the first episode of #Breeders on Fx with #MartinFreeman & #DaisyHaggard tonight looking forward to watch the next episode!  @ London, United Kingdom”
