It's the Thought That Counts

This is a 30 minute comedy. We don't need a lecture - we need a few laughs.

Let the dramas, documentaries, and news do the lecturing.

Especially if you can't "get woke" without being so unbelievably cringey.

Wade and Shannon's relationship took a fun turn I've never seen before. What do you do when it's your birthday but you've just started dating someone? The writers set this dilemma up and then worked it out in a happy and unique way. And Wade's "exit walk" was hilarious.

They also brought up a social issue regarding race that was well worth looking at through the lens of these characters' friendships. A deep issue, yet they maintained the show's lighthearted humor, and its likability, all the while introducing ideas that were well worth becoming aware of. We all want to treat our fellow citizens with as much respect and understanding as possible, and when helpful ideas are presented in such an easy way, it helps us all up our game a bit. So -- many, many thanks to the writers, producers, and cast for this one.

Keep 'em coming! This is a fun journey to take with this group of folks.

I like this show, it's not ground breaking, but Its harmless, charming and often amusing. Until this particular episode came along. It's clear the script writers have been instructed to write a woke storyline and it was just terrible. It felt rushed, awkward and forced. It was just total garbage. If this theme carries on, I'm done with the show. Please return to all the characters being best friends and make the show fun again.

It wasn't that bad. The discussion about race relations was organic to the story and the characters. Had some good laughs in between. Matthew A. Cherry knew what he was doing when he directed this episode.

So young black kids can't pretend to be a cop or a soldier saving someone from evil people? Sad and stupid. Also completely unnecessary. We are trying to escape.
