The Wonder Years

Nice group of characters to spend time with. No furious or clueless parents. No bratty kids. No screaming. The show is warm. Everyone in the family likes each other. Their friends are lovely people.

This is the kind of series I need.

As usual any show showing life in the good ol' US of A from anything but a Lilly-white perspective is immediately called "too political"!

I remember watching the original series whilst still at school and wondering where all the diversity in America is? I was getting into rock, blues and jazz music and Jimi Hendrix was my hero.

This seems to a gentle comedy show about late 1960's era family life in a black middle class neighborhood in the south. But it will not shy away from showing a black perspective.

Good start, hope the characters and story live up to the premise. We shall see.

This is how to properly reboot a classic. Totally fresh take, great casting, loved the beginning narration showing that 50 years later, everything is pretty much the same. I thoroughly enjoyed this. Ignore the low rating. Definitely worth the watch.

I was a little skeptical about this reboot, but I actually found it to be pretty good. It's a charming show about a 12 year old boy discovering his path in life. It's a charming premise, and it's handled well. The show can also be deep and emotional, with the death of Martin Luther King affecting everyone. Some issues is that a little to much happens in this episode, and there could be a little less of Don Cheadle's narrating. Not that he does a bad job, he does a great job, be he sometimes talked over scenes that shouldn't have needed narration.

But besides that, it a charming take on the Wonder Years, that's also deep and emotional.

Now I'm usually the first to call out the woke society but the pilot was fantastic. Stop calling it a remake. Stop jumping to conclusions. Give it a chance. Things actually happen this way back then. No matter what you want to believe.
