Rel

The show isn't as good as Carmichael because of the writing, casting, and cheesy concept. If the show is based on Rel losing his family to his barber, the barber should be his nemesis. You can't turn a life event into the main premise of the show and then never use it again.

The show doesn't use a laugh track; the sound editors are just bad at finding ways to blend the laughter. (I've attended a taping of "Carmichael" and they told us that we'd be used like a laugh track and have our laughs rearranged for continuity.)

Rel should've waited and developed this concept. You can't have your own show 1 year after Carmichael. You need time to pitch something worth watching. I feel like the target audience for this show is SJWs and yuppies who want to "learn more about diversity". That's not how it works.

Haven't we moved beyond the stereotypical African American jokes? This show reminded me of a bad, throw away UPN show from the 90's. It just seemed to use the same algorithm that every other failed sitcom has used.. Laugh track? Check.. Divorced man trying to get his life back together? Check.. Former drug dealing African American brother? Check.. Lesson learned at the end of the show? Check.. Divorced man takes the first step in getting said life back together by the end of the pilot episode? Check.. The "jokes" fell flat.. There was ZERO flow to the story. And it felt beyond forced.

Let Sinbad loose!!! He's too contained!!!He's waaayyyy funnier than this.....

I watch the show every week, i really want it to win but after 8 episodes it's not gonna work. Rel is a funny guy and he's talented but this show is just not cutting it. If Jerrod is working on this , i don't understand why it is so bad. Jerrod and Rel were excellent on The Carmichael Show, i was hoping for the same type of comedy as the Carmichael show was phenomenal even for the short period of time. The jokes are lame the acting is lame , it's just lame. Rel is lame. I will support as I want black shows to win but this is a flop. Please go back to the drawing board before fox cancels it.

Seriously? 3 words out of his mouth and the canned laugh track made it less funny.
