David Makes Man

Extraordinary cast and acting. One of the best tv shows i've ever seen. Amazing character development.

This show is refreshing-people who says it's slow, just don't get it. Sometimes slow is better.

The first season was epic and quality acting and writing on all accounts. Now the second season is a train wreck. There is just no way to explain the insanity of the direction the show has taken. The time jump was highly unnecessary. David's condition seems to be this on going mission to make naturally intelligent well educated Black dysfunctional. The only Blackmen on television seem to need a hood undertones. Don't understand why they are purposely attempting to cancel this show form within.

Very strong Pilot episode made me want to watch it again - IMMEDIATELY! From the brilliant co-writer of MOONLIGHT, this stylized drama takes off like a rocket. Fantastic acting from the amazing ensemble - McDowell and Rashad are stand outs (Phylicia Rashad can do no wrong anymore in my eyes), wonderful writing and yes, there is a moment near the end that made me want to see it all over again. Profound. Provocative. Visually stunning. I hope Oprah and her OWN network gives this a nice Emmy push come next year, because it could very well be a contender.

Some say this is a coming-of-age story, some say it's about a boy trying to get out of poverty. I say it's about a introverted boy, under trying circumstances like most young boys of color, who are living/raised in an extreme at risk home life. So many things happen and he does not know what to say about them, and he never really says what he wants to say, this keeps him in a deep emotional war, but at the end...... you'll find out...... no spoiler alert here!! watch to the end then go back and rewatch the whole show. You will see it differently the second time.
