I wasn't sure I'd like this show when I watched the first episode. The main character takes a little bit of getting used to, but I grew to love him. He's cool, has a killer strut, he's amusing and whip-smart. He just can't seem to not get kidnapped. Still, by Season 6 Episode 12, I was nearly in tears that the show was over. I kinda get why, but I still think there was at least another season of stories to tell. This program is a charming lark with lovable characters. Another season could have explored more of their backstories. Sorry the series came to an end, but I'm keeping an eye out for these actors in new projects. I can't wait to see what they do next!

I was VERY skeptical about this show. The title is terrible and the promotion really did not give viewers much indication about the show's premise. Nevertheless, since I'm a Jesse L. Martin fan, I decided to give it a shot. Boy, was I hooked! The depth of the psychological analysis kind of reminds me of the science behind science-themed drama like Star Trek. The writers clearly put research into their scripts while also telling good stories. The other thing I like is that the scenarios are grounded in the reality of Black people. That's not to say it's all about Black people to the exclusion of e everyone else, because it's not. However, these characters don't shy away from being Black in America in 2023 either - even for intellectual, educated, professional, upper middle-class Black people. I look forward to more episodes and a quick renewal for next season.
