The Family Stallone

I stumbled on this show when season one came out, and had zero expectation and was pleasantly surprised! What piqued my interest was it was none other than Sylvester Stallone and his family, the tough guy movie star who I actually didn't expect to do this kind of series. Growing up in the 80s and 90s when he established his stardom, I didn't care for his movies at all and I had an image of the guy as a typical self-absorbed Hollywood star who didn't have much of a character. Well, after seeing this series, I realized it was my ignorant stereotyping of the macho movie star that had always stuck with me but is now totally gone.

Yes, Mr Stallone is a typical male in many ways, and I can imagine the efforts Ms Jennifer Flavin had to make in their marriage, let alone the near-divorce that was featured in season one, but he seems to be a real stand-up, caring family man of good values. And he, and his family, are funny! You can see a lot of love and respect each of Stallone family member has for each other and it makes you happy seeing them together. This is a an uplifting reality tv series starring a celebrity. Most reality series starring famous people don't leave you feeling warm, but rather anxious and unsettled from all the drama or vanity. This show makes your heart warm and cheering for the Stallones.

The three daughters are typical California-raised rich girls who are living their lives in their twenties under the protection and guidance of two pretty cool parents who love them but also don't spoil them rotten. By the end of season two, I found myself cheering for each of them.

So far, this show has been a great breather and I have enjoyed it very much. I hope there's season three and if there is, I hope the producers will keep the show as genuine, light-hearted, and focused on the good and positive as season one and two.

Wow, let me just start by saying that The Family Stallone has been an absolute delight to watch! As a fan of Sylvester Stallone, I was beyond excited to get a glimpse into his personal life and see the dynamics of the Stallone family unfold on screen. And boy, did it deliver!

This show isn't your typical reality TV drama. Instead, it's a genuine portrayal of the Stallone family's values and their unwavering love and support for one another. It's heartwarming to witness their unity in the face of challenges and the way they always have each other's backs. It's a refreshing departure from the superficiality often associated with reality shows, and it left me with a warm and fuzzy feeling inside.

But let's talk about Sly, the man himself. I've admired him for years as an actor, but seeing his personal side showcased in The Family Stallone was something truly special. Sly's charisma and down-to-earth nature shine through every scene. He's not just a legendary Hollywood icon; he's a doting father, a devoted husband, and an all-around remarkable human being. His genuine warmth and humility make him instantly relatable, and I couldn't help but be inspired by his unwavering support for his family.

The show strikes the perfect balance between entertainment and authenticity. It never feels staged or forced. Instead, it feels like you're right there with the Stallone family, experiencing their everyday lives alongside them. It's like being a fly on the wall, witnessing their triumphs, their struggles, and the occasional disagreements. It's real, raw, and incredibly engaging.

The Family Stallone is a gem of a show. It's not just about the famous name or the glitz and glamor of Hollywood. It's about family, love, and the power of genuine connections. Whether you're a longtime fan of Sly or simply someone who appreciates heartwarming stories, this series will leave a lasting impact. Get ready to be inspired, entertained, and reminded of the importance of family values in our lives. Trust me, you don't want to miss it!

PS IMDB plz give a "How you doin'?" to Scarlet from my side :)

Loving this show, seeing how close they all are and how grounded the girls are despite the lifestyle.

Also have to love all the guest appearances from so many A list celebs.

Never knew much about the personal life of Sylvester Stallone, but seeing how he is around his friends and Family, is inspiring he's exactly what you'd expect from him. Also this is a perfect platform to promote Tulsa King, which is an amazing show, showing Sky at his best.

I'm not a huge fan of celebrity reality shows, but this is one that I not only was surprised by, but one I'd recommend to anyone to watch, Inspirational and sweet.

I didn't expect this series to be an epic movie, it is a family of a well known actor who is loved by many willing to let the public in to see his life and his families life that is genuine. I can't imagine allowing someone to film you all the time. I applaud their willingness to show who they are. Our real lives are not epic, perfect movies. Real life is just that real life. It is a joy to watch someone you grew up watching let us in to see his family. I have thoroughly enjoyed this series. Didn't have any expectations of depth or movie perfection. Just love seeing Stallone's family. Just my humble opinion.

.... just seems like a way for Sly to fast-track some "celebrity" for all three daughters at once.

It's akin to the Kardashian show... or any of the "real housewives" shows... etc... If that's what you like, you will probably like this. Although I will state that the "mental stability" and maturity of the Stallone family appears to be at a much higher level than the other shows I've mentioned.

I did find the second episode funny.. .all the talk about being an overprotective father.. but then essentially creating a show that, at its core, is merely objectifying all three of his daughters at the same time. CLEARLY there's the ulterior motive of getting the daughters "known" more.

I guess "fame" is REALLY important to some people and if you can get that nepotism push, why not use it. After all "Hollywood" isn't about talent or skill 99% of the time.. it's about who your family is and if they can use their celebrity to get you hired. Here's a great example.

What's really striking about this is show is how NONE of the Stallones seem to realize just how much "privilege" they are provided.

It's actually kind of funny.. all the "problems" they face are relatively insignificant and only seem "troubling" because something as a MINOR impact on some expensive outing. It's really quite hilarious... they don't have an real life worries so they conjure up some pointless drama and have some sort of emotional reaction to fabricated "problems".

I've seen Tulsa King... Sophia's performance was NOT that great... and her last name is "Stallone" the star of Tulsa King is a Stallone... and yet they all repeatedly act and state that "she got the part on her own." Really? Being the daughter of the primary star had no baring? Really? Are they really that blind???

Stand up and be loud and boisterous in a restaurant.. everyone just laughs it off.. if a non-celebrity were to do such a thing, after a moment or two, then'd be "disturbing other diners" and they be asked to stop, asked to leave, or the police would be called.

And the fact that each episode shows the women in bathing suits.. short shorts, etc.. yeah... none of that has anything to do with WHY this is a series, right? (Admittedly they are all very attractive, so this just plays into the objectification of them all.)

Or marrying someone more than 20 years your junior... yeah .... that happens every day. I've lost count of the 75 years olds I've met with 50 year old wives..... surely that has NOTHING to do with wealth and fame... come on!

The ENTIRE family takes a vacation to Rome.. and oh NO! Someone has a headache!!! Ain't it horrible! I mean seriously....

I fear all these young women would just wither quickly if they did not have the safety and security of a multi-million dollar father. One thing is certain.. they aren't prepared to actually deal with real life and will rely on their privilege. I can't blame then.. hell I'd do the same if it were possible.

I fear "Hollywood" causes brain rot.. or at least common sense rot.
