The Fosters is a compelling, one-hour drama about a multi-ethnic family
mix of foster and biological kids being raised by two moms. Stef Foster
(Teri Polo), a dedicated police officer, and her partner Lena Adams
(Sherri Saum), a school Vice Principal, have built
a close-knit, loving family with Stef's biological son from a previous
marriage, Brandon (David Lambert),Live Streaming Video Free Online Tv at Home Game online for Live stream Video on your Online TV Broad cast and their adopted twins, Mariana
(Cierra Ramirez) and Jesus (Jake T. Austin). Their lives are disrupted
in unexpected ways when Lena meets Callie (Maia Mitchell), a hardened
teen with an abusive past who has spent her life in and out of foster
homes. Lena and Stef warily welcome Callie into their home thinking it's
just for a few weeks, until a more permanent placement can be found. The Fosters is a show about a foster family but
with a nice modern day twist - there are two moms instead of a mom and
dad, the eldest son is the biological son of one of the moms from a
previous marriage, and then there are the twins, a boy & girl, recently
adopted by the family. This is a show concerned about all the people
who fall outside of the traditional family existence, about the
children who need another family to take them in. And they make it
interesting! Really can't emphasize this enough, there was obviously a
great effort employed to combine the serious and complex issues with
the need to entertain to tell the story, and they did brilliantly, i
wasn't bored for a second.
I have to thank the reviewer who summarized The Fosters as "filth", i may not have ever watched it but after reading his/her review i felt it my public duty to actively counteract this act of douchebaggery by watching the show and then actually saying something objective somewhere in my review. I was so glad to see that 0 out of 12 people found his review useful (lol) but because this poorly-disguised rant against homosexuality was the featured user review, and also because there were only 2 reviews at time of writing, i felt it would be useful to be number 3 to let you guys know you won't be wasting your time with this one :)ABCs drama shows, they always have a normal enough setting with such a deep undercurrent you just have to tune in to find out the secrets that everyone possesses. The show revolves around a lesbian couple that foster children, they have twins who want to spend time with their birth mother, a boy from one of the mothers previous relationships, and when the show begins they take on a girl who just got out of juvenile detention.
The kids are good actors and have good chemistry together, they have the usual teenage problems, pushing the boundaries with their parents, trying to find out who they are etc. The story about Callie, the new girl from juvenile detention is very interesting. At first some people judge her as being a violent young offender but we start to see that she comes from a very troubled home life and just wants to fit in and be loved.
The chemistry between the two mothers is fantastic, it's not camp or overdone, it's a normal representation of a couple struggling to raise kids who just happen to be women. They embrace, they argue and apart from the mild surprise at the start, it feels like watching any other parent duo. In particular I have to praise scenes that take place between the two moms and the ex husband and father of one of the boys. They all have equal rights to the raising of their children and they are trying to figure out how that works with three people, something that happens frequently for any divorced parent with a child that remarries.I started watching this show, without know what it is about, or even the genre. The first minutes caught me, but suddenly everything seemed to fall apart, the acting faint, the story became predictable, the script stopped developing, all in name of a declared ideological message. I do not want to believe that is a political/social agenda behind some shows, but the way that show is presented and evolves, made me believe in that. The will of mold minds, around some subjects clearly overlaps the rest in this show. The attempt of doing different or alternative and shake some minds, can't be the first layer in any show, that turns it in pure propaganda and leaves behind the real substance. The plot and acting here, are in a permanent struggle, trying to make us escape from that referred propaganda.
