Grown-ish

Highly disappointed,

Take a highly popular family show and spin off to a show about reckless sex, casual drug use, and excessive alcohol?

Seems like such a waste. Also ignores most black college experience does not focus in alcohol and drugs in the same way as white counterparts. I am old but also an ED doctor in area with many colleges. Black kids are still not getting end up in the ED drunk or high. It did not have to be "A Differrent World" but also show some responsibility to the main audience of. "Blackish". You can tackle difficult topics without making them seem the norm. While stimulant use is widespread it is quite overstated on this show. Please make adjustments to turn the show into a positive more accurate depiction off college life.

I haven't watched Black-ish but as a college student, I thought I might like Grown-ish. It's not very reflective of my own college experience but I do enjoy the show. The characters are likeable and I appreciate the way that each episode has a central theme.

This is definitely not like "A Different World". Instead, it feels like the writers did not attend college, they basically compiled the negative stereotypes college kids are labeled as & made a tv series about it. This show is shallow & basic. It's the show for college drop outs, the party kids really. "Dear White People" is a better representation & closer to the greatness of "A Different World".

I loved the show because of the side characters but i really can't stand the main character. She is very self centered and a weird character to focus a whole series on.

First - I wish IMDB wouldn't allow people to review shows after having watched any less than 3 episodes. It takes many shows to hit their grove. Even the best shows from the past 30 years have had uninspiring pilots.

I like this show. I will admit that it can be lost on anyone who has not been in college within the past 20 years. It attempts to play off of issues many of millennials face such as social media and shallow dating scenes.

If you're watching this because you like black-ish, you may be disappointed. This show is not meant to be black-ish. It has some cameos but that's about it.
