I like the show overall. It has very good story lines and the characters are super relatable depending on your walk of life but there is definitely at least one character on the show that someone can relate to. My biggest knock on the show is that sometimes feel very choppy. Meaning they will introduce new characters without context or not give a full background on them before entering the fold. They just seem to appear like magic. Most recently in the last two seasons 5 & 6. The best examples I can think of this are the emergence of the character Zay who just basically enters an episode and becomes down with Douda’s clique right away. Then you got Bakari’s sister Brittney that just shows up out the blue. We never knew Bakari had a sister this whole time. Same thing with Emmet’s half brother. Writers need to do a better job of giving us background on these characters or least make it more realistic. Like for instance, how Emmet a grown man and not know he had a half brother his whole life but him and his dad have been cool the last 3 or 4 seasons now. You would think that topic would have come up once or twice in conversation. Makes no sense. But again I say the show overall is good.
