Grown-ish

Highly disappointed,

Take a highly popular family show and spin off to a show about reckless sex, casual drug use, and excessive alcohol?

Seems like such a waste. Also ignores most black college experience does not focus in alcohol and drugs in the same way as white counterparts. I am old but also an ED doctor in area with many colleges. Black kids are still not getting end up in the ED drunk or high. It did not have to be "A Differrent World" but also show some responsibility to the main audience of. "Blackish". You can tackle difficult topics without making them seem the norm. While stimulant use is widespread it is quite overstated on this show. Please make adjustments to turn the show into a positive more accurate depiction off college life.

I am a huge fan of Black-ish, which is what led me to give this show a chance. The first episode doesn't do it justice; you really need to hang in there a bit to start to care about the characters. This isn't a family show the way Black-ish is, but it deals with a lot of important issues dealt with in college and young adult life. I think it's wonderful there is a strong, real young woman who is the lead. She's not perfect, but why does she have to be? No one in life is perfect, and I appreciate the show making the lead character very relatable to young women dealing with a lot of the same issues.

This is definitely not like "A Different World". Instead, it feels like the writers did not attend college, they basically compiled the negative stereotypes college kids are labeled as & made a tv series about it. This show is shallow & basic. It's the show for college drop outs, the party kids really. "Dear White People" is a better representation & closer to the greatness of "A Different World".

I'm half way through season 3, boy it's been hard to get this far. Zoey is such an unlikeable character, I couldn't stand her in Black-ish, she was such a brat and she's not much better in college, in fact, she's worse!

Her sense of self-importance, her self-obsession and vanity are so off-putting. Also things seem to come so easy to Zoey, not much background of her actually working hard to earn any of the big breaks she gets. She's always the victim in the stupid situations she puts herself in. I could never be friends with a Zoey.

It's the friend group that does it for me. Love Nomi, Ana and the Twins!

Yara is beautiful but not a great actress, zero depth and no emotional bandwidth, scenes of her trying to be upset or cry are just painful to watch.

At this stage, I am hate watching until Junior arrives, I cannot wait and hope he redeems this show, he is a character I could binge watch with love!

First - I wish IMDB wouldn't allow people to review shows after having watched any less than 3 episodes. It takes many shows to hit their grove. Even the best shows from the past 30 years have had uninspiring pilots.

I like this show. I will admit that it can be lost on anyone who has not been in college within the past 20 years. It attempts to play off of issues many of millennials face such as social media and shallow dating scenes.

If you're watching this because you like black-ish, you may be disappointed. This show is not meant to be black-ish. It has some cameos but that's about it.
