What the audience says
The Middle has pulled the kind of numbers most English series never see. It holds a 7.6/10 on TMDB from 792 ratings, well above what most films manage. Episodes run about 22 minutes. In India you can stream it on Netflix, Prime Video.
Is it worth starting?
This is 9 seasons deep — English comedy, fine for the whole family. Several seasons in, so it's a commitment to start rather than a one-night sampler.

- Why
