Champions

I have watched it all, and I really am confused. It seems to aim for the feminists with some of the jokes and then to the very opposite with some jokes, and I feel that it's very hard to find out who the characters really are, because of this - the continuity seems very far off sometimes. I finished it, but I must admit, I don't see how this show can get better, it is very wobbly.

And honestly, isn't the Mindblowingly Stupid Character-trope really overdone by now? I think this is where I leave this show, and honestly I have no idea who I would recommend it to.

I don't know why people are so irritated about this series, it is a fun show! yes, the plot might be too basic for some people but it does not make this show any less funny. the characters are lovely, jokes are of course very Mindy Kaling-y which i will never complain about. come on, just give this a try!

After a wobbly start, this series is beginning to find its footing and actually be funny, while at the same time finding some heart.

It's done this by letting Michael actually be a kid, albeit a precocious one, and letting Vince actually exhibit some character growth. And by letting Matthew be Matthew. The humor relies less on glib one-liners and more on the situations they find themselves in.

But it sure took the writers/producers a while to figure this out and I fear they may have lost the audience.

When I saw Anders, with a hard An from Workaholics was in a new show with Mindy of the Mindy Project I thought I had hit the jackpot but this show is a little lost and the child actor portraying a young homosexual Indian boy (played by Josie Totah) is unloveable and comes across as far too obnoxious and too much of a know-it-all.

Anders and Mindy are good in this and the supporting cast isn't bad either (I think I love Dana - played by Ginger Gonzaga) but the kid is irritable, comes across as very obnoxious and arrogant and simply isn't loveable. I think with a more loveable, less know-it-all homosexual child this could have been a good show and allowed for a lot more humour derived from that part. I understand what they were trying to do and the subject material does give them a lot of interesting story lines that other shows wouldn't be able to do and I would love to know what others thought but I just didn't like the child at any stage even after finishing the entire first (and likely only) series.

It took a while for this show to find its footing, but once it has (by ep. 5), it's REALLY GOOD. It's one of the wittiest, smartly-written comedies around.

I don't understand how anyone can be annoyed with JJ Totah. What he's representing in this show means so much to a lot of people and he does so with infectious charm and energy.

I'm interested to find out the other characters' stories so I hope they get more than one season. Give it a shot, people.
