Poppa's House

I love seeing Damon Sr. And Damon Jr. Working together. However, Wayans, you can do better. I've watched all 4 episodes now because I have seen all your individual shows and I am a huge fan of the entire Wayans family and T. V. projects. I've been waiting to see the kids that have been constantly mentioned on Episodes 1-3. You did that with Episode 4. I been waiting to get some spice on the show, Wendy Raquel Robinson brought it on Episode 4! She needs to be a regular. She did not disappoint! I love Essence Atkins and she is great, but the show needs the antics Wendy Raquel Robinson is known to bring in all her roles. Plus, the show keeps talking about Poppa's ex and family issues.

The set change on Episode 2 was disappointing, why not keep it for a cool middle age new bachelor? Episode 3 was somewhat disappointing. Please, please do not make Damon Jr.'s character goofy like Jr. From My Wife and Kids. That character development was a spiral going downward.

What is really disappointing is the comedy and better writing. Poppa's part is solid and now the emergence of the mother (Wendy Raquel Robinson), but the rest needs some work. I like the serious lines and all the characters, but what all the Wayans family members do best is comedy. This show is missing that Wayans flavour.

I watched all the episodes but I really didn't get into it until the seventh episode. I felt that the show has finally coming into its own. Damon Wayans and Junior do a fine believable job. The humor and writing is getting better as we get used to the characters and sitcom premise. I don't exactly where it is set. Maybe in New Jersey, Poppa worked on the radio in nearby New York City. The cast of characters are slowly coming into form as the season goes on. I enjoyed the Misery segment when Poppa has a nightmare about his co-podcaster in the niddle of the night. I felt the physical humor in the seventh episode added to the show.

The banter is witty enough, the characters are typical flawed goofy people like most multi-cam sitcoms. However the producers need to tone down the laugh track. The punchlines are too fast and the writers need to let the joke rhythm breathe a little bit more. Still, after two episodes, I think this has a chance to get renewed. CBS is hurting for viewership and it's possible that this show gets enough views on Paramount plus to keep around for a few seasons. And the writing should tightening up a bit a long the way. If you watched My Wife and Kids, this is kind of similar in terms of comedic tone.

It's a good show and I love seeing the Wayans men again so much. But unfortunately first off Damon jr's wife it pretty boring and not someone you want to see too much of in the show they should really fix that or just stop showing her as much second I agree with another reviewer that said you need better writers you definitely do. I'm not saying it's a bad show it's for sure a good show just with the Wayans men in it alone but definitely needs to written better and take the wife out or give her better story's and I'm really trying to get used to the therapist lady but she's just so meh I don't know maybe it's just me on that one. I feel this could be more about the dad and son and the dads ex wife oh well we will see how this goes.

Damon Wayans and Damon Wayans Jr are two of the absolute best in the business. The humor, the timing, they are great. The show needs room to grow though.

The women are unbearable. Why are women written so ridiculously unlikable these days? Seriously there's an audience for it or as usual the men are carrying the load and the women are along for the free ride?

Women used to be written to be supportive and funny and wise. Now they're just miserable shrews. Humorously if the men were written so poorly not a single show would survive. Yet you have father's and such with big hearts. The women are struggling to keep up. The ending redeemed the women some though so here's hoping.
