The Carmichael Show

I enjoyed the show more than I thought.

I've never seen Jerrod Carmichael in anything and his humor is pretty good. Can be a little dry on the delivery but maybe that's his humor. Only thing is I wished the female main actress (girlfriend) will relax more. She doesn't seem to know how to not show she's waiting on the next line. I did like the brother and his "ex" wife.

I honestly have never been a David Grier fan but I can say I really like him in this show. David and Loretta Devine (who I LOVEEEEEE) are great together.

Gave it an 8 because it can only get better. I'll be watching!!

It was refreshing to watch a scripted sitcom, which parallels my experience as a southern-born first-generation African American college graduate. The humor, the values, and the political commentary juxtaposed against their faith takes me back home with every episode! I have absolutely loved both Loretta Devine and David Allen Grier for decades. Few actors can match the comedic expression of David's facial lines and raised eyebrow. The multi-talented Loretta Devine with her soulful voice is the perfect cast for the southern mother.

It has been difficult over the past decade or so to find a sitcom that both me and my extended family can relate to in this new age of "politically correct" and "millennial- centered" sitcoms ("Modern Family", "New Girl", "Big Bang Theory"). While I enjoy both New Girl and Big Bang Theory, I appreciate the NBC network for airing a show which reaches the often forgotten middle-age to older American audience. This show clearly reminds me that there is a great need for multiple voices and experiences to be expressed on network TV. I look forward to seeing the career path that the talented writer/actor Jerrod Carmichael will take.

I got all caught up on season 2 of comedian Jerrod Carmichael's series, and two words keep coming to mind with each episode - Norman Lear. As with his shows of the '70s- "The Jeffersons", "All In The Family", etc.. - this series seems to tackle all the socio-political topics of the day. Each episode takes on a different subject. I won't say this show is knee-slapping hilarious, but it does make you think, and it's definitely not afraid to get all non-PC. Carmichael himself you can tell is still getting his feet wet as an actor, as he has surrounded himself with some heavy-hitters -- film and TV veterans Loretta Devine, David Alan Grier, etc.. so he sometimes can stand out with his acting style. All in all, I'm enjoying this show so far, and am looking forward to what it will tackle next.

I absolutely love this show. I love the content. It is very up to date and accurate to the African American life in the south. Please continue with this show. David Alan Grier and Loretta Devine are awesome together. I love the relationship they have. It reminds me of the love that I have seen within my parents and other Black relationships that have stood the test of time. I pray that the station keeps this show and give it more advertisement. The comedian Jerrod Carmichael is great, how I myself may have a hard time relating to my siblings on current event. This show is so on point.Tiffany Hoddish is a bit much, but there are some family members that I have are exactly like that.

Comedian Jerrod Carmichael tackles edgy subject matters every week in this outwardly traditional network sitcom. Maxine (Amber Stevens West) is his liberal therapist girlfriend. His parents (Loretta Devine, David Alan Grier) are opinionated. Bobby (LilRel Howery) is his loser brother and Nekeisha (Tiffany Haddish) is Bobby's domineering ex-wife.

Carmichael has plenty of fun pushing the hot buttons. It's deliberately subversive. He's able to survive the network overlords for the most part except for the shooting episode. It never really got great ratings which is possibly its saving grace. Maybe none of the suits noticed what they were doing. It's 3 shorten seasons of funny, edgy material.
