I love this show! It's actually quite a personal thing for me, as I am an autistic male, called... Joe! Unlike my fictional counterpart, I was diagnosed at 10, not 5, but this show definitely draws on familiar experiences.

There's also his well-intentioned dad, his aggressive mum, and his more aggressive grandad. We also meet various counsellors, babysitters (again, delightful!) and Rebecca's morally dubious boyfriend, and his odious friend.
Definitely give this one a go! You won't regret it! :)
