I fell in love from the first moment in this series, watched all 10 episodes in two days. In no other series that I know, is so open and forthright honest deal with transsexuality, transvestites, lesbians, bisexuals, gays (only marginally), tolerance, discrimination, adoption, abortion, sex addiction, cheating, drugs, depression, suicide, Religion, selfishness and self-promotion, Outing ... all taboos are charmingly simple broken here. There will never be applied too thick, you will never confronted with unnecessary clichés - so real life is nunmal! Although not all themes with 3 children occur in any family. The characters are lovable thoroughly, nothing seems embarrassing the actors act terrific authentic. I'll TRANSPARENT all friends and acquaintances recommend, because I think it is a good and simple way, introduce not directly affected people on these issues. The German dubbing is indeed only in November, but you get used to quite quickly to the English. Although I did not understand every word, but the meaning opens up a still.
