Reviews

According to TV Spielfilm , the series is “more cautious and closer to reality” than the cinema. The series is "fast and a little cheeky, but never in such a way that it disturbs a broad audience at prime time", it "swims like a river cruise ship in mainstream television entertainment", offers "diversion for the whole family". The main actress Kasalo is the “most conspicuous actress” and gives her character “just the right dose of indignation when her parents turn out to be zero checkers”.

Sidney Schering of quotenmeter.de the series adaptation felt, however, as "surprisingly toothless" and in comparison with the movie "a very different, more boring game." "The very creative, smug Pubertier -Kinointerpretation [...] itself" offers in comparison to the series as "The stronger alternative to the television series," while the series is content with being "the umpteen family series that is carved out of the wood from which German 90s sitcoms were carved."

Audience ratings

The first episode of the series reached 3.34 million viewers (11.8% market share) and was thus below the average for the broadcasting slot. The second episode was seen by only 2.55 million viewers (8.8% market share).
