I'll post some YouTube links that I posted in another thread about this show. The show is based on an Israeli series, BeTipul, which only ran for two seasons. The first season of the American version matches the original quite closely, but there are some changes that were made because of cultural differences. There is an Israeli-born therapist currently living and practicing in the States that goes over some of the differences between the original and the modified American series, and the cultural reasons for the differences. Interesting if you're really into the show.

Thanks for the links. I've watched the short one so far. Fascinating! I am a first generation immigrant living in the US, and being from another culture I love to observe and analyze cultural differences and how mindlessly we judge people from other cultures by our own cultural standards that we feel should be the only standards to live by. In this regard, this video is so telling! And since I am very much into the show, I will certainly watch the other one too.
