The Cleveland Show

Just saw WatchMojo top 10 worst TV series and it was in here... I found it offensive. Yeah, it's not as great as Family Guy or Simpsons but it wasn't that bad. I get the idea they've tried to make everything the same as Family Guy just concentrate on Cleveland's family not Peter's. It was okay, not really funny but watchable and even some episodes were entertaining. I get it why it has only 4 but still, if you have free time it's better to watch this than half other useless TV shows.

Most people hate this show because it's a trend to say it sucks. Totally untrue. Its comedy is on par with later Family Guy episodes. No it isn't to die for funny but it will make you genuinely laugh hard plenty of times.

The show failed because too many characters were complete disasters. Tim, Lester, and Holt are God awful. Tim's whole gimmick is sounding like a muppet and being a bear, Lesters whole gimmick is being a moronic redneck, and Holt's whole gimmick is being an unfunny dwarf. Cleveland and Junior are on par with Peter as far as their comedic value. They tone it way down in the Family Guy episodes and I wish I knew why. Cleveland is incredibly relatable and he and Donna are a perfect comedy duo. (WAY better than Peter and Lois as a couple but not funnier than Peter)

Rallo and Roberta are just alright. They're not actually terrible as side characters. Meg and Chris are not funny. I don't care who disagrees. An episode of Family Guy will never focus on them because they are not interesting enough to be more than side characters. We're pretty much getting the same thing with Rallo and Roberta. Junior however is pretty funny.

I wish this show wasn't cancelled but changed instead. Like if they got rid of Cleveland's friends and replaced them with funnier characters it would work.

Being that as of Sept 28th 2009 I have only seen the pilot and it doesn't seem to be a promising show. It's a little funny, it did make me laugh, but Cleveland just isn't funny. When you have a character like Peter (an idiot) everything just falls into place. TRYING to be funny just doesn't work.

I don't see much coming from this show. It's like it was designed by the lowest bidder. They had to make a show because without a show there is no biz, but this is the best they could come up with. Lackluster is the best way to describe it, uninspired.

They need to stop blowing a hole in Cleveland's bungalow. It was funny the first time.

Well the only reason that people are hating on this show so much is the fact that they continue to compare it to the likes of Family guy and possibly American dad.

This show isn't bad, it is entertaining and the humour is smart. As a fan of Seth Mcfarlane I knew I would enjoy the show anyway.

Yes the family structure is the same as Family guy and American dad, and may lack some ambition, but needless to say, I don't laugh at much shows these days, buy this manages to squeeze quite a few giggles out of me.

No, it's not better than family guy, but if people watched it with an open mind and stopped comparing it, I reckon it would be enjoyed a lot more than what it is.

Can't understand the hate reviews here. It's an offshoot of family guy with Cleveland as the lead and he carries it well. He's a hilarious character! Not sure why people don't like it, even after reading the reviews. I'm guessing people are turning this into a race thing, which is disappointing.
