Boomerang

Finally, the time has come for the black version of "yuppie" society to rise in the grand scale of television. For years we have been yearning for a fresh take on the black experience and Lena Waithe and her team at BET delivered just that. This show is funny, smart, sophisticated, but more importantly self-aware. The characters reflect the young professional experience with wit and style, I would 100-percent recommend this series to anyone who likes the comedic stylings of our generations genius such as Issa Rae (Insecure) or Donald Glover (Atlanta).

I really liked following this group of friends, they had great chemistry with each other. The soundtrack is stellar a lot of nods to some classic '90s RnB. My favourite part of the show was the imaginary sequences and scenarios especially in season 2, they added some fun and humour to a show. I feel like the show was under promoted and mis advertised as a "reboot" to the original movie from 1992, that it is loosely connected to. It could have stood just as strong and found the right audience on its own grounds. A light hearted yet sincere show about friendship, figuring out identity and romance. Would have loved a 3rd season. Hope the show receives more love in the future.

A friend recommended this series. I waited several weeks before actually watching.

My friend should have led with the fact that Lena Waithe, together with Halle Berry, is this series' EP.

Lena Waithe won an Emmy for the episode of Master of None she wrote - she has a gift for crafting memorable and moving TV episodes.

Lena, Halle and the rest of their team do an excellent job of weaving in classic scenes and tropes from the Boomerang movie in a fresh and modern take.

A few of the characters are annoying - until you realize: duh, they're rich 20-somethings. Exactly as they should be.

The #pride and #metoo episodes were everything. Representation matters. Thank you!!

Ok so I just started watching this show and I've never watched the original series. I'm just trying to figure out if I missed something the 1st 6 episodes Bryson was in love with simone but they were not together. All of the episodes show the cat and mouse chase between them but all off a sudden episode 7 they seem to be in a relationship. I am very annoyed with the way it just changed makes me not want to watch it anymore. And also when did the show become about lgtb I'm not against it I just don't get it after watching episode 7 I'm very dissatisfied with this series.

Honestly, I don't understand the dislike for this show. It's neither a remake nor is it trying to be better than the original. It shows the African American struggles without victimizing its main characters, which is a step in the right direction if you ask me.

Six young friends try to navigate through the perils of their lives, learning lessons of love, work, and friendship. It's not really different than shows like "New Girl" as far material and the plot lines are very interesting and well written. There are quite a few twists and this seems like a show that gives you information sparingly as it goes on rather than dropping all the information about the characters on your lap as soon as you meet them.

I like the dynamic between the cast, how natural it all feels, and yes, I'm rooting for the main couple to get together. It's got it's cliched moments but I've seen some really awful television, like cringe-worthy awful, that is rated better than this show, so ignore the hate and give it a chance.
