The Tracy Morgan Show

This show has everything you need. The laugh out loud funny father of the household Tracy Morgan (need I say more? His face says the rest). The funny and cute kids (yes, I said it) Marc John Jefferies and Bobb'e J. Thompson. The gorgeous wife Tamala Jones. And Tracy's hilarious co-workers Katt Williams, and John Witherspoon. I'd give this show a 9 out of 10. The only downfall being character development. But come on, just look at Tracy. His smile even cracks me up! Give it a watch, and let his comedic style grow on you like an ugly Christmas sweater.

I've seen the first three episodes and I surprised myself laughing-out loud at least 5 or 6 times each time!

Tracy Morgan is funny! There's never been any doubt about that! He created some hilarious characters on SNL as "Astronaut Jones" and others. But would his brand of humor translate to prime-time family sitcom format? I say, surprisingly, YES!

The whole cast is fabulous, specially Tracy's younger son played by Bobb'e J. Thompson. Watch out for that kid! The only thing missing, is a real complicity between Tracy and his wife, played by Tamala Jones. I guess it's normal. You can't ask two actors who've never played together before to reach a level of intimacy a couple that's been together since high school would have. I'm sure it will build!

Check it out! One of the very few new sitcoms worth watching!

I think this show is great! Today, it's so hard to find a show that is really good for the whole family. But, this one is. I can tell that a lot goes into the storylines and the characters. I especially like the theme song, written by Heavy D.

This show is filmed right near my house and there are always tons of people that want to go see the tapings. I just have two suggestions: Tracy needs to not try so hard to be funny. He should just relax. I guess part of it is the direction and writing for him to "camp it up." But, he doesn't need to. He's naturally hysterical! And Secondly: the network needs to leave the show IN ONE TIME SLOT and advertise that time. When it moved to Saturdays, I didn't know for a few weeks. I don't watch NBC that often, so I didn't know where to find the show, until I accidentally had NBC on one day and saw an ad for Tracy. Lots of people love this show, but they need to know when it's on. And, NBC should give it more advertising in other places, like TV Guide and on buses, etc.

I hope the show lasts because it fills a void for a good family show.

I'm glad to see that Tracy Morgan has a show, because a lot of times when people leave Saturday Night Live, nothing happens after that, no matter how hard they try (have you heard from Cheri Oteri?). Anyway, Tracy is pretty good as the patriarch Tracy Mitchell, and Tamala Jones (ahhhhh.) is good too, and I really like the kids, but there's one character I can do without. Freddy (Katt Williams), the token angry black man or token scrub, I'm not sure which, just isn't funny. Also, sometimes it seems like the audience's laughter is forced. I hear a lot of funny jokes, but after I hear the audience I sometimes find myself saying, `It wasn't THAT funny.'

Other than that, I think the show is going to last. And isn't it amazing how much weight Heavy D lost?

Take the best of "The Cosby Show" and "Diff'rent Strokes," throw in a little of "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air," head the cast with one of SNL's better recent alums and a great comedian, and you have the finest new family sitcom on television. With a fun cast that includes the beautiful Tamala Jones, and the often hilarious John Witherspoon, it's a wonder why the show isn't on more top 10 lists of the season. Along with "Scrubs," "The Tracy Morgan Show" is NBC's present and future, and it would be sad to see these two shows sidelined by weak ratings or boring reality shows.
