The Tracy Morgan Show

I give it a thumps up... I know its the first show but it was so funny. I never heard of this comedian but I was happy with the quality of it. Even the little sons were all adorable. I hope they keep it running if not I hope UPN takes their contract. Wil Smith watch out but its as funny as your show "All about Us."

This show has everything you need. The laugh out loud funny father of the household Tracy Morgan (need I say more? His face says the rest). The funny and cute kids (yes, I said it) Marc John Jefferies and Bobb'e J. Thompson. The gorgeous wife Tamala Jones. And Tracy's hilarious co-workers Katt Williams, and John Witherspoon. I'd give this show a 9 out of 10. The only downfall being character development. But come on, just look at Tracy. His smile even cracks me up! Give it a watch, and let his comedic style grow on you like an ugly Christmas sweater.

Two episodes premiered last night (Tuesday, 12/02/2003) and not one funny moment in either episode.

I did not laugh once!

The humor is too forced. This show is "trying" too hard to be funny.

I'm glad to see that Tracy Morgan has a show, because a lot of times when people leave Saturday Night Live, nothing happens after that, no matter how hard they try (have you heard from Cheri Oteri?). Anyway, Tracy is pretty good as the patriarch Tracy Mitchell, and Tamala Jones (ahhhhh.) is good too, and I really like the kids, but there's one character I can do without. Freddy (Katt Williams), the token angry black man or token scrub, I'm not sure which, just isn't funny. Also, sometimes it seems like the audience's laughter is forced. I hear a lot of funny jokes, but after I hear the audience I sometimes find myself saying, `It wasn't THAT funny.'

Other than that, I think the show is going to last. And isn't it amazing how much weight Heavy D lost?

Take the best of "The Cosby Show" and "Diff'rent Strokes," throw in a little of "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air," head the cast with one of SNL's better recent alums and a great comedian, and you have the finest new family sitcom on television. With a fun cast that includes the beautiful Tamala Jones, and the often hilarious John Witherspoon, it's a wonder why the show isn't on more top 10 lists of the season. Along with "Scrubs," "The Tracy Morgan Show" is NBC's present and future, and it would be sad to see these two shows sidelined by weak ratings or boring reality shows.
