Kenan

I just don't get it. Kenan is funny. Whoever is writing this mess is like trying to make him not as funny. The lines are terrible. Don Johnson is not a comedic actor. Chris Redd is trying too hard and so is the lady who plays Tamika. The kids are just not adding anything to the plot or the comedic factor. I don't know what happened here, but it's a no for me.

At first I wasn't sure what to make it of it because ifs been a while since I've seen a heartfelt funny family show and I just didn't expect it. It's hilarious and it's a sweet show about grief. Slow down and give it a chance, it's actually really good. Happy for Kenyan, I've heard him on interviews and he's a really humble down to earth guy, good for him.

There's a lot to enjoy about the show. Kenyan kills it. Honestly, he's the only reason I've gotten through the first episodes. In fact, all the characters are great. However, the main character's wife died and every episode is linked to her death. I hope the show evolves beyond this. The concept is a little tiring and a little depressing especially for a sitcom. I hope they rework what the show is about and let the actors and characters be fun.

The pilot is not a good representation of this show. Keep watching. It improves with each episode. Kenan Thompson is a talented comedian and has a great rapport with Don Johnson.

Love Thompson and Redd on SNL, so maybe I was expecting more. One of the few shows I've seen that would benefit from a laugh track. It's just not that funny. Plus, I can't stand shows when children talk like 40 year old tv writers.
