Queen Sugar

I would have rated it a 9, but what happened with season 6? Did the writers go missing? It feels forced and fake. The only storyline that's worth following is Violet and Hollywood. Luckily they're my favorite characters, but still, the season feels like they just phoned it in, like someone said, ok, what are the most generic stories in the news and we'll go with those. I really hope the final season redeems itself after such a dismal season. It would be such a shame for a great show, great characters, to end as they did. It's like everyone (except the actors) just gave up.

Amazing cast. Superb acting and directing. I've not read the novel so I'm able to enjoy independent of how the story unfolded in that format. Slow build in season 1 but DAMN is it worth it! Stick with it. I watch a lot of shows but this is the one I live for. Gripping, real, gutsy, emotional & compelling. This story and these characters stick with you.

I love this show. It's authentic. It draws you in these characters lives and keeps you there. I'm on the current season and I have yet to be disappointed

I have already sent out a message to friends that this is a show to watch. If you missed the first 3 episodes, then spend some time binge watching them. You'll be glad that you did. I like it much better than "Greenleaf" which is also on the Oprah network. I give it 2 thumbs up!

The only "star" that I was familiar with on "Queen Sugar" is Dondre Whitfield from the old "Cosby Show'. He's all grown up and is quite handsome. I wasn't familiar with either of the two female leads, but they are really enjoyable to watch. I hope that white audiences will give this show a chance, but most intelligent African-Americans will enjoy and be proud of the terrific writing and directing.

When I first heard of the showings for this series, I was kind of skeptical to watch, since it was initially stated it would be a short series, so I recorded the first two so that I could make sense of it. I'm glad I decided to. The series is GREAT and quite believable. I can never wait until the next showing as it leaves you on the edge of your seat and waiting for the next. This, as with all great series, will be very upsetting to me once it ends. I totally love it am glad that OWN is there and Oprah allows the African American shows to be aired on her network and am sure that other networks will not even give it a second thought. The plot is very intriguing and edgy. The writer is brilliant and the cast are excellent actors/actresses and I love each one of them and everything they bring to the show. Other viewers whom rate as bad and just another black show are confused and of course they are entitles to their own opinion but I highly advise others to view for themselves before looking at other reviews and their negative opinions and decide to watch and get into it. Once again OWN, thanks for the excellent and mind-intriguing shows!!
