Average Joe

This was unexpectedly very good. Deon Cole? You can't take a project serious right there, or can you? Cole and the other actors and actresses in this did very well. One of the protaganists is a Dave Chapelle look alike in both speech and comedic wit and timing.

The story itself is intriguing. Its a plot that could've fell flat on its surface but is executed very well here. There is genuine suspense here. Every episode is full of plot points that draw you in and make you either hate or like a character's actions. Netflix or whoever owns the rights has to complete this by coming out with a new season.

This show is one for the books! I ordered BET+ just to give Average Joe a try and to support Deon Cole. It's a surprising breath of fresh air, well written and well acted by the entire cast. A cranky, crime dramedy that ranks up there with shows like Fargo and Breaking Bad. And it's just nice to see such a diverse cast with black folks at the helm, embroiled in a story line that is anything but typical. This Average Joe project is so far removed from what you'd expect from the BET network.

The show's creator put some serious thought into the story and it just hits on all cylinders. Not sure where this will go after the first season or if it's simply meant to be one season, as BET is notorious for greenlighting shows and cancelling after one season. Hopefully Average Joe keeps going past one season or simply goes down as one of the best original shows the network has ever seen. Either way, bravo, Deon Cole and cast...bravo!

I loved this show. It would be totally crazy to not have a Season 2 or more. There are so many things left hanging, and I like many are invested in these characters and need to see what happened to them. It would be a crying same if this turns out to be one of those series that just ends and leaves you wondering. If it does that would be my one and only complaint. The two bad reviews I see here must have some sort of problem to give those reviews or they weren't paying attention. Many people in this country do not want something they have to pay attention to which is why we have so many awful reality shows.

BET or black entertainment television although technically correct for this series is doing it a disservice as it's limiting its audience.

This is a complete blockbuster that does not miss a step.

Black white Asian Latino Martian whatever this needs to be simultaneously broadcast on additional networks.

Yes the preponderance of cast are black but that has nothing to do with this show.

Except to show that everyone faced with the similar circumstances can turn into a sociopath.

Love hate complete disbelief are all social aspects to everyday life and everyone experiences them regardless of race.

The whole story line was good, the video production was a step up from low budget (which I love), but other than that it's a great story line. Cole did his thing on this! His facial expressions were ugly asl lol he looked constipated but overall his acting and the casting was great. This will go down as a classic movie, I know it'll be platinum in the black household. But a great series did not expect it to be this good, this was a show I needed in my life. Hopefully we can get more shows that are this intense and great of a storyline. I could've seeing this being a movie, but I think they did a great justice by spreading it out. The 10 million really was a great concept because it exposed everyone.
