Are We There Yet?

I just discovered this show through Samsung Tv plus and must say that I have fallen in love with it. I watch it almost every day. It's just an all around feel good show that keeps me laughing and in my happy place.

I'm quite a fan sitcoms and I've probably seen most of the reasonably good ones by now. I also tend to follow the supposedly mediocre. However, this sitcom is by far the worst one I've seen. The jokes just fall flat; I'm sorry, but that's the way it is.

The show deals with marital life and unfortunately the points it tries to make are dismissed far too easily. They're also generic and the jokes used to make them are uninspired. There simply isn't any innovative subject matter like in Seinfeld, Frasier, The Big Bang Theory or other great sitcoms.

I don't usually review IMDb items, but after seeing this I felt compelled to warn others.

I'm sorry but Essence Atkins character Suzanne was miserable and miserable to watch. She was jealous, mean, controlling, distrusting, rude, arrogant and just a complete disaster. I was SO happy she wasn't in season 2. The show was fine without her.

I get it she had a bad relationship with the kids dad but she never reached an arc of crusty. She just stayed miserable and unhappy unless things were going her way and Terry Cruz's character was just weak.

He never stood his ground and was constantly groveling to appease his miserable wife. The only enjoyable thing about the show was her absence and the kid from next door.

Oh and Gigi and Martin were awesome! I know the show is old but my gawd was that 1st season unbearable to watch with her.

I gave 5/10 because the last 2 seasons were great w/o her.

Well so far all I've seen is a couple of silly trailers for the show. I don't see a listing on tbs or anywhere else for that matter. That is really too bad because my daughter and I wanted to give it a chance. We are both fans of Terry Crews from his superb performance on "Everybody Hates Chris" and other internet appearances such as a series of Old Spice deodorant commercials which can be found quite easily on YouTube at http:// www.youtube.com.

His reviews on the YouTube spots and everywhere else are overwhelmingly positive. As a comedic actor Mr. Crews has a great range. We want to be entertained, tbs, so bring this show back for another season and give my 9 yr old daughter and myself a chance to judge (and review online for your perusal) ourselves.

It's late so this non-review may not be as coherent as it is in my head... Something perhaps lost on the 3:30 AM red-eye from my brain to my thumbs (yes, I am typing this non-review on my 4.3" screen HTC EVO). So one more time, we implore you to please promote the show and give us a second chance to see if we like it, simply because Terry Crews is a funny guy and I hope he will start getting the exposure he deserves.

Great venture for Ice Cube and I really appreciate that he tapped into great talent and creative pools from now defunct CW shows like "Everybody Loves Chris" and "Half and Half". With "Are We There Yet?" being on TBS following the lead of the template that Tyler Perry has set should insure that these shows don't end abruptly and will have a lasting syndication run.

These episodes are setting the pace for possibilities with all the rich characters and situations to draw from. For example the Hyphenated name issue really was thought provoking and funny. I give this a 7 with room to grow. I am look forward to seeing where things go.
