Synopsis

From the comedy of Jerrod Carmichael and Nick Stoller ("Neighbors") comes an irreverent sitcom inspired by Jerrod's relationships with his say-anything, contrarian father, his therapist-in-training girlfriend, his ever-hustling brother and his mother who is always, always, always right with Jesus. Taking the next step and moving in together, Jerrod and his girlfriend, Maxine (Amber West), are your average young couple trying to make it in the city. They’re smart, motivated and looking to build a fulfilling life together. The only thing standing in their way is family. Between Jerrod's larger-than-life brother, Bobby (Lil Rel Howery), and his smothering and passionate parents (David Alan Grier, Loretta Devine), Jerrod and Maxine are put to the test navigating the boundaries of romance, family and sanity.

WillSushyMedia This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.
Benas Mcloughlin Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.
stuart_bean I absolutely loved this show, the episodes were very funny and dealt very well and fairly with a lot of current issues. I don't understand why it was discontinued.
MovieHoliks I got all caught up on season 2 of comedian Jerrod Carmichael's series, and two words keep coming to mind with each episode - Norman Lear. As with his shows of the '70s- "The Jeffersons", "All In The Family", etc.. - this series seems to tackle all the socio-political topics of the day. Each episode takes on a different subject. I won't say this show is knee-slapping hilarious, but it does make you think, and it's definitely not afraid to get all non-PC. Carmichael himself you can tell is still getting his feet wet as an actor, as he has surrounded himself with some heavy-hitters -- film and TV veterans Loretta Devine, David Alan Grier, etc.. so he sometimes can stand out with his acting style. All in all, I'm enjoying this show so far, and am looking forward to what it will tackle next.
luvleme1 I recorded and watched the shows and found it very interesting. When I didn't see any more after the final, I was kinda upset because I was hoping for more showings. Glad to see the show is returning for a 2nd season. The cast are great, it's comedic, and the story lines are relative to everyday. David Allen Grier and Loretta are good; as well as the other comedians one the show. Glad to see another station is giving minorities their shows. It shows diversity and the willingness of broadcast stations and their being accepting and is up-to-date with today's people. Thanks for the show and I look forward for more seasons!!
johnnywalker-46854 Watching this show with a LIVE audience, and people truly laughing at it, is amazing in todays TV. The show itself is hilarious, but definitely unpredictable. You can't predict how the characters will react in a given situation, and they have real life views that reflect todays world. You have to value a show that isn't afraid to be funny while talking about not-so-funny world issues. No spoilers, but the pilot was the funniest show I had seen in years. The season episodes are just as funny.I know I'm jumping around, but I'll just end this review with this. The TIMING of these actors is amazing. Comedy is about timing, and they don't miss a beat.Gave it 9/10, because its the best comedy I've seen on TV in recent memory.
