Review by chasegraphics

Johnson

10/10

Finally something that's real .... Why am I just seeing this show

After surfing through countless "Black Drama" my wife and I landed on "Johnson". (Laughs expected).

I'm so tired of watching the Hood Flicks that are constantly making POC look like monsters, bottom self citizens, and snakes oil salesmen. This show reminds me of my 6 childhood friends of 50+ years ago until today encountering 1 death due to illness. It's very refreshing seeing this type of show, that's very uplifting with everyday life and situations that actually happen. I maybe bias due to the shows reflection of my own life.

It's starts off slow 1st 2 episodes, but then I feel like the actors and writers start to mesh. The casting is excellent and the positive messaging is real. I hope to see more shows take this approach. Todays entertainment's overloaded with negative garbage that keep us all gathered in one big filthy bed.

I applaud Cedric and the creators of "Johnson" for taking the chance that may not be popular to many but enjoyed by few! I Hope to see more!!!
