Diarra from Detroit

I'm so happy I stumbled upon Diarra From Detroit! The writing is outstanding and the actors fit every character to a tee. I love these kind of shows that you just can't stop watching because you just have to know what is going to happen next. It's funny, it's serious, it's thrilling, it's sad, and it's nostalgic. Brilliant! Each episode gives you everything you need to not have any will power to turn it off. The issues and challenges everyone is facing along with playing detective really adds to the flow of the series. Run, don't walk to watch this series, and be prepared to have all the emotions with each episode.

This show is unexpectedly great. I cannot wait until the rest of the episodes premiere.

Honestly, I watched this show out of curiosity, and surprisingly it sucked me in. This show has an odd storyline, but it's super suspenseful and interesting.

Diarra is a unique character, perhaps spiraling from her divorce situation, but she found a light somewhere in that tunnel. Despite her finding that light, she somehow still got lost in the tunnel. I hope she makes it out of that tunnel with her light and unharmed, because she's going deeper and deeper into the tunnel without a clear sight of making it out.

Ok I have to admit I just knew this was gonna be a typical bet show/movie vibe but I was wrong. A celebrity recommendation is what lead me here . Following Tucson view on it I said oh what the hell. From the very episode I was hooked , it's different it's fun , it sends my anxiety through the damn roof and every time I think we on to something it switches up . I am obsessed with the show and it's only four episodes in . This writer did her big one and the best part is the acting is on point . This bought me back to bet . I look forward to the rest of the season and I pray the writer has more up her sleeve like this because I truly believe shows like this can and will revamp bet.... Round of applause.

This show is so good. I thought it was crazy that she was looking for a guy after one date, but as I continued watching the show Diarra was helping a mother find her son. I think the main character solving the investigation gave her freedom of not thinking about her marriage. Her friends are super funny and supportive of her. I loved how each friend has the own story and how it's similar to the main character. I hope it gets a second season because we need to hear Chris/Deonte's side of the story along with his mother. Also the aftermath of Velvet's house and how Diarra's husband is in the streets.

I haven't seen any of Diarra Kilpatrick's work before this, and to be honest the thing that drew me in was Detroit in the title. I grew up down the road, and my dad worked in Detroit in the 80s. This was a great nostalgia trip. I got almost every reference (White Castle, Woodward Boys, Northland Mall) and it felt like being home again.

What kept me around was the writing. It's sharp, hilarious, and smart. It makes me want to go through her filmography and watch more from Diarra. I might have to check out the Last OG next.

The character writing is excellent and the plotting of the story is far above the modern Hollywood standards. Things actually lock into place instead of happening because it looks cool. By the time you get to the end it has you guessing what happened to the missing person.

By the end you can believe that this circle of friends is going to stay tight. The actor playing Moni was a standout to me. She quickly went from antagonist to someone you were rooting for and laughing with within a couple of episodes.

I would love to see a follow up season to answer the rest of the questions laid out. Great job all around.
