Sinbad, Lil Rel Howery, Jordan L. Jones, and Jessica 'Jess Hilarious' Moore in Rel (2018)
REL is a multi-camera comedy starring Howery as a loving husband and father living on the West Side of Chicago, who finds out his wife is having an affair. And not just any affair. An affair with Rel's own barber. Quite easily the worst person for your wife to sleep with, because as hard it is to find a good spouse, it's even harder to find a reliable barber. Plus, with the barbershop being one of the epicenters of neighborhood gossip, Rel finds his embarrassing business is known by everyone, including the Pastor (also played by Howery), before Rel can even process the emotions himself.

    Laugh track ruined it

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

    It's just not working

    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.

    Unfunny

    If this is a comedy where are the jokes? The heavily forced laugh tracks suppose to tell us when something is funny. Problem is there are no funny enough moments to laugh. The characters are simple cliches. The show looks very cheap in every way. It is a flop for sure.

    Stereotypical

    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.
