Loved the length of the episodes and the whole feel the show gives. Gotta have a season 2. Vince has a lot more material to give the world. And we wanna see it!
The dialogue was pretty funny and the acting wasn't bad at all. With more opportunities for the show to expand in characters and potential story lines. If the next season ever happens it will be a lot better and more refined.
Wish it had a soundtrack by Vince to go with it, but it doesn't take anything away from the show.
Very glad Netflix took a gamble with giving Vince his own show and from my opinion, this is solid television. Hope this introduces new fans to his music and shows the potential he has as an artist in multiple mediums.

This show is all I wanted from Vince and more. As soon as I heard that he was making a show I knew it was gonna be heat, but this is much better than I expected. The pacing, writing, humor, characters, theming, and music elevate the show to crazy heights. This not only proves Vince's chops as an actor, but as a writer and creator as well. I literally made an IMDB account just to write this review because I like the show that much. It really does portray an accurate look into the life of a lower-income nihilist rapper. Truly is one of the funniest shows to come out of Netflix in a while, so thank you Vince.
Clearly this show is intriguing, and yet oddly satisfying. With so many screens today displaying (no pun intended) a higher fantasy way of a regular guy from the hood life, it's obvious that Vince Staples hasn't erased the big picture of it all. My advice when watching this series is to remember that even though some may see it as a similar show that's already on the air, you have to realize that every hood, city, state, environment is different. It may look the same, but The Vince Staples Show is from Vince's own perspective on his life... No other show can do it better than him. So no, it isn't similar, it's Vince. A lot of real life choices are shown in each episode from everyday people, which many can relate to. If you're not loving this series because you can't relate to it, that doesn't take away the fact that it is indeed good.
It's good to change it up every once in a while, and this change was needed. Let's take a break from expensive heists that normal guys don't do in the city for trillion dollar diamonds, and bring the reality of the nitty gritty.
The Vince Staples Show is The Next Entertainment Realm of Film!

Watched the first 5 episodes and loved it. I'm sure this will not appeal to everyone as it is rooted deeply in lower class black culture. Which can be harsh gritty and disrespectful. With that being said for folks who've watched Atlanta know how unpredictable and surreal shows can be. This shows carries a similar energy albeit there is not always a happy ending as it is rooted in the lower income black experience. The show is real but still funny and carries the culture as it is forward on the big screen. There's also soo much that you have to read in-between the lines to understand. Great watch and great job Vince.
This is a tough review because there were aspects of the show I really enjoyed, and others I didn't. It's like it was trying too hard to be both funny and serious at the same time. Pick a lane in my opinion. Possibly it's building up to something but with the episodes available to me currently, I'm not super interested in another season.
I gave it a 5/10 because I do think it has potential. The funny bits were truly laugh out loud funny but it seemed like 30 seconds later we were tackling some serious social injustices and that's not what I signed up for.
It's trying very hard to be the live action version of The Boondocks but just not as funny (not even close).
