As a 12 year old I thought this was alright, as I got older I realized this is beyond stupid
Rating: 3.0
It's not so horrible that it's unwatchable, but as you get older you see the cliché's they're using and the fact that Mr. Brown is just stupid, like really stupid. Mr. Brown alone tanks the show, not really going to mention the fact that a lot of the jokes are just black tropes rehashed from every tyler perry work.

Avoid It!
If you have seen anything written or directed by Tyler Perry you should know just what to expect. The characters and humor in the show is lame, bland, and overall boring. The monotonous beat the show has will keep you thinking not about the show, but when it will actually end. It is just a non stop drag. Filled with Pathetic jokes and lame plots, Meet the Browns consists of mainly bland situations and not a speck of humor. Not to mention the awful sense of timing with the fake laughs leaving you wondering if your supposed to be laughing at all. It's a waste of time. The fact that the Season DVD's actually sell is shocking. Thus making this show a terrible experience. I would avoid this show to save yourself from a truly boring time.
Not quite quality TV
Wow! Where do I start. I REALLY want to like this show because I feel that black folk make the best comedians. I grew up watching Martin, Family Matters, Fresh Prince, Living Single, etc and I feel that those shows were pure comedy. You can't watch those shows and not laugh.
However, when I watch this, I can't help but notice the lack of realism. For one, race is clearly an important theme here. The white people on this show are usually weird in some way. With the exception of Juoquin, the others just seem a bit off. Then you have Leroy who has a personality where he Just Doesn't Quite Get It. His jokes are funny at times but his character is always loud, obnoxious, and foolish (like Curtis Payne). But then you have the two surgeons (Will & Sasha). A scenario that kinda reminds me of The Cosby Show. These two are very bold, wise, goal-oriented, and successful. Not only that but they could qualify for models. In other words, they're perfect. It's just hard for me to decipher this show as realistic.
The acting isn't exactly on point. There are times where it seems like they're not trying hard enough but then there's times where it seems like they're trying too hard.
The comedy of this show isn't always funny. I would actually admit to laughing about once every 10-15 times they play that little fake audience laughter.
I really want to like this show. I'll catch it every good once in awhile (mainly because Sasha so fine) and watch but I'm not too sure how anyone can really enjoy it 100%. I DO feel that it has potential but they have to change a lot of stuff.

Thank goodness this filth got cancelled
This is one of the worst TV shows that I have ever seen. I cant believe this mess got to air on TV. This show should of gotten cancelled after the first episode. I tried to watch a few episodes and they just weren't funny. The shows elementary humor isn't funny to me. Tyler Perry must be doing something with the people of TBS because to keep this slop on the air because his TV shows are horrible. The characters have no chemistry at all. It just seems like they don't give a damn about their job as long as they get their pay check. The laugh track that is used every 30 seconds is annoying as heck. The laugh track is also used at the wrong times which is ridiculous. I don't understand why the TV show uses laugh tracks instead of having live audience. Its just ridiculous. This show is just like the House of Payne which is a pain in the you know what. That show needs to be cancelled also. This show deserves 0 out of 10 stars because this show is beyond horrible. The people who give this show 10 stars must be one of the writers of the show or people who never seen a real comedy before. Its sad to say this but black sitcoms will never be the way they were back in the day as long as Tyler Perry is producing TV shows. He needs to either cancel his shows or hire brand new writers who have higher than an elementary education.

Really Really Bad Oh My Goodness
Whenever I would go in to donate plasma the center would have this playing on their televisions. Even with a needle in my arm, blood being drawn, watching this show would be the worst thing happening to me.Whenever I would go in to donate plasma the center would have this playing on their televisions.
