Good Trouble

After the successful TV show "The Fosters" came to an end, this new show brings Callie and Mariana to Los Angeles. As you may know, the finale of "The Fosters" already jumped a few years forward and introduced Callie and Mariana as recent graduates who were planning on starting their careers in L.A. .

While this new show might try to present the lead characters in a more mature light, the initial steps of both Callie and Mariana in their new professional setting are still cluttered with some of their old habits. After their degrees and life-forming years at university, you can't really estimate how advanced Callie and Mariana could behave because many of their previous remnants from "The Fosters" show are still in their daily lives - like dating/boys or their lively dynamic with their mothers. One aspect, their unbound sisterly love and support for each other, is still as strong as before and carries over their belief that family always comes first.

Whether "Good Trouble" will be able to allow Callie and Mariana to mature beyond their foster years remains to be seen. The production quality, the new setting and promising story line are certainly a great start.

13 is not enough! I have never been urged to write something here before, considering i have been a member of imdb for more than a decade and being a real movie and tv buff, it is weird. But, this tv show is amazing. It embraces family, friendship and social awareness on such a level that i wish every second of it that it was real and it was my life. I really want to see everyone growing old and having a full life for the rest of my life. Keep 'em comin'!!

I liked The Fosters mostly for its portrayal of a family led by two committed, married lesbians, living their lives. The focus was not just about them being gay. I will give Good Trouble kudos for continuing in covering the same types of important social issues and broad diversity of characters as The Fosters did. But Callie and Marianna? They have had zero character growth in 6 plus years of programming. They NEVER learn from their mistakes. They have made one bad decision after another, then when trouble follows, they lie or deploy avoidance/denial tactics. Every time. At the end of the day, all is forgiven and there are never any real consequences for years of bad choices. Success continues to be handed to them in spite of themselves. Surely they can be written as more complex and adult than this, after obtaining law and engineering degrees. I wanted to like this show, but have remained only to support the Alice/Joey storyline.

I thought The Fosters was a far superior show to this. That being said, this show is enjoyable, but please do away with the lesbian comic storyline. They are not funny,( not one of them has uttered even once funny line, ever) and all they do is sleep around and stab each other in the back. The other running storylines are good, but please give these girls a break and give them something good to do, because none of them are comics. I cringe every time they start to do a set.

Seriously cool spinoff.This is what you always expect and never get from spinoffs.
