All is Wellis such a success that some people would even pay to scold the drama’s main ‘villains.’ One Taobao seller had nearly one thousand customers paying a fee this week for a special service to curse the characters they despise so much.
While the TV drama is a major hit, many fans seem to take pleasure in scolding the main characters. On Weibo, some netizens are changing their names into some of the Su villains, allowing others to scold them.

对于《都挺好》所刻画的内容,《经济学人》直呼:观众们都被惊呆了!
From “The Simpsons” to “Game of Thrones”, dramas about bickering families are common in many countries.
从《辛普森一家》到《权力的游戏》,关于家庭争吵的电视剧在许多国家都很常见。
In China, ...the questioning of blind attachment to traditional values in “All is Well” is causing a stir. Viewers are transfixed by its rare portrayal of middle-class life, warts and all. Many Chinese can relate to the Su family’s troubles.
Beijing Daily said the drama was “unrealistic”. It said it caricatured elderly parents by “unreasonably” ascribing “every possible bad quality” of old people to one character.
