So much average

everything you have heard about this movie is true.

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

I wanted to like this show. I really wanted to like this show. I watch it in the background while I'm doing other things. It has never made me laugh. The humor is very dated and predictable. The first season was fine as we got to know the characters -- none of whom are very deep. The second season is more of the same. They try to bring up relevant events like racism, corrupt cops, privilege, etc. But they play it too safe and want everyone to find their similarities rather than point out that these things are real and they can't be wiped away by an old white man who means well. The white characters' and the cops' suspicions usually prove to be true in some way in the end so I guess they try to make the point that "some black guys really are thieves and do drugs so it's ok that we profile them but we only do it when they deserve it." If you reversed the Middle Eastern character with the Jewish character it might be more relevant but we can't have a well known white American actor portray an accurate personality that we see a lot of in this country. That might offend the delicate audience. The most real part of the show is that both main characters are said to enjoy smoking weed. I understand it's a sitcom but if they would just let it be a bit more real rather than having everyone agree to disagree (but remain friends who will continue to have the same issues) it would be more relatable. But this is an "everyone get a trophy" show. All characters are flawed but the black characters are broke and the white characters seem to carry the moral high ground. No trophies for you!

Lots of Love/Hate for this little show with lots of heart. It translates well across the pond. Thought i would make that clear. Two show's with heart are "Superior Donuts" and "Kim's Convenience" as for the other comedy shows i have seen in the last 3 years.. none compare. As a former stand up and sinner of stage and screen by far the best acting. Cliche's sure but not swearing to get laughs, no outrageous sexual deviance for laughs. Clean is a much harder form of comedy.. a little campy is cool. Times have changed as ethics are a thing of the past with comics.. a true comic uses timing not "f" bombs. Kudos on those shows trying hard to bring back playful and endearing happiness, something much needed everywhere. Happy humor is my choice for a winning shoe (w).

Predictable comedy not 10 minutes into it and I started thinking Chico and the man, and the character "Fawz" making jokes about Iraqi germ warfare I thought was a little dry. Did anyone else just imagine a bunch of dead kids laying in the streets of Iraq after Saddam Hussein gassed them all? Maybe I'm over critical but that's the 1st thing that came to my mind. I've always liked Judd Hirsch and Kathy Siegel maybe it will get better, I loved Chico and the man!

This is just another "Chico and the Man." All the plots are incredibly hack and predictable.The jokes are about as stale as last week's, well...It is the usual "old guy has to overcome his bigotry, you guy helps."The characters are stock stereotypes,
