I finished Widow's Bay yesterday, great show! Totally agree that it feels grounded enough to care. Story was well written and had some great laughs. Totally recommend!

I recently read a discussion about the difference between 'grounded' and 'realistic' because the two are often used interchangeably.

"Realistic" is true to life. You can't stop a tank with a pistol. Horses can't jump across the Grand Canyon.

'Grounded' means that the characters and actions are so well presented that they feel honest, even when they are completely fantastic.
