Parenthood

If you want a drama that takes its characters as seriously as its plot, Parenthood is available in Australia on Netflix and Amazon Prime Video, and in the US on Paramount Plus Premium and Wonder Project Amazon Channel right now. With 6 seasons behind it, the show has had time to find its rhythm and keep it. Its 7/10 TMDB score, built from 183 ratings, reflects a title that consistently delivers. Peter Krause's performance alone is worth the time investment. Put it on tonight on Netflix and see for yourself.

Parenthood arrived without much fanfare and built its audience the hard way — through word of mouth. Parenthood takes its time building the world its characters inhabit, and the patience pays off. The trials and tribulations of the very large, colorful and imperfect Braverman family. Peter Krause and Lauren Graham lead a cast that treats the material with real seriousness. The series ran for 6 seasons (2010–2015), building a story that gave its audience time to invest properly. What elevates Parenthood is a refusal to let any character off the hook too easily. There is real craft here, even in the moments that do not fully land.

Viewers drawn to character-driven storytelling will find plenty to sit with in Parenthood. Viewers who responded to Brothers and Sisters will find a lot to like here too. The 6-season run rewards the patience it asks of you. Peter Krause carries the material with a performance that rewards close attention. Worth starting sooner rather than later.

Parenthood wrapped up in 2015, created by Jason Katims — and 6 seasons are available to watch from start to finish.
