If you have seen the plays then you would get this. Tyler writes with REAL emotions so hopefully it translates to what you see on the screen. OK so the acting is a bit eh. But that is due to mostly unknowns playing these roles. Everyone has to start somewhere. I don't know about you, but I do not want to see the SAME 5 black actors playing these roles. Hollywood plays it safe when casting Black projects using the already limited black actor casting pool as it is. The actors in this show are a nice departure from seeing Gabrielle Union, Vivica Fox and company. So have an open mind, appreciate that Tyler is giving folks a chance in showcasing a different side of the Black American Family Sitcom. Not everyone can be Cliff and Claire. It's 2006 so it is OK. Right? Oh and bravo to showing in selected markets. Tyler Perry's plays are famous but not everyone gets "it". SO why not go where your loyal audience is? If he had the marketing team aware of that then fine.
score 6/10
