Lindsay Woods: I’m a dormant individual by nature but my children are adrenaline junkies

We recently began watching a new sitcom called, ‘The Kids Are Alright’. It follows an American family in the early seventies as they raise eight sons.

It has echoes of ‘The Wonder Years’ and ‘Malcolm in the Middle’; heavy on the nostalgia, a soothing narrator delivering the moral of the story and the subsequent lessons learned combined with eight boys clattering each other at various intervals throughout.
