This show is one of the highlights of the week for me! I love the character development, the personal battles they fight are so real and in tune with so much of what many of us face in life. I love how they have people relationships, not just skin color hate and anger but showing a world that skin isn't even MENTIONED or noticed as a divide!!! I absolutely LOVE IT!!! With so much of the world at odds of skin color it's rare to see a show based in current times that does not take a political side or race side to push their own agenda's and beliefs. This is just what it should be, a wholesome entertaining show that gives insights into the human struggle and all our complexities as we navigate the social issues of today. This show is a ten no question and it should be required to watch and compare to others by young people so they can see the difference of a hate filled show like the new Wonder Years vs Ted Lasso which has many skin colors and only 1 race. Well done Apple, you are showing the way forward unlike Hollywood-hate with all the political and racial hate they attach to their programing.

I honestly was very interested in this show, I thought it could open up doors to enlighten people to the time period and juxtaposition of the societal issues from the first series to the second one. A way to build a bridge of misunderstandings and find common ground in a time when much like today was as tumultuous and scary to be a person of color. The difference from then to now is skin color, where black people fought for their civil rights in the 60's we now have the same fight for White people and their rights today. I am a person of color and I see no race except human race but with Hollywood taking such a militant stance on skin color and race it has led to many shows like this one to have potential but then to drop the ball so to speak for it's own desire to politicize and stir the pot of racial hate. This show starts like it ends in the first episode, telling you that police and white people are the enemy. Sorry Hollywood, but you are the enemy these days. Time to unplug from their excrement of hate.

I began this movie with great anticipation having been just a kid when the original came out and it had been so scary I was waiting for this new one to be at least close to the same. Well needless to say I am greatly disappointed. Right from the start it is political and takes a stance of anti white people and anti police with only hate filled references to race especially the white race. At one point during the introduction and the "story" in the loft he makes it very clear that the crazy woman was "white", and it goes on and on like this. Nothing intelligent to say, it's just BLM rehash of hate I've already heard to much of this last few years. So for me it's a great big zero of a movie and hopefully Hollywood realizes they're opinion of hate doesn't matter to the average citizen, we just want you to entertain us and keep race, politics and hate out of it please!

I have loved this show for it's first 7 seasons as it has been one of the funniest well written slapstick-esque comedies on TV. But as this new season has started like many other TV series this season it follows a trend of political bias in it's writing that has left me with a bad taste in my mouth. The first episode was a clear and resounding strike at the Police as being racist and hateful towards black people. The whole episode goes down this rabbit hole only offering a few awkwardly laughed at jokes that were just not in the same ball park as previous episodes. But the message was clear and the directors, stations and producers politics are known. But was it the same show and on par with others, no definitely not. But in respect to the previous 7 seasons of laughter I kept watching. Now here we are in episode 4 and have seen that the police are racist, they hate black people, they're deceptive and seek to only fool you, (Episode 3) they are actually really not needed as "their" facts prove (episode 4) that when the police were striking fewer cops were needed to keep the streets safer so a loud and clear de fund the police stance right there. For me where comedy and laughter was once their goal which they hit the mark every time; this change in production has gotten a bad review from me. The trend in hollywood going towards political manipulation that they would rather shove politics down your throat 24/7 without offering their once awesome reprieve in the worlds of TV that we all loved! But the world has given us this, a comedy oozing with hate behind jokes of uncertain laughter. Just not what I want to see when trying to relax watching TV.

I loved this show for the first 4 seasons as it was deep and hit many issues in our society that showed we can all get along even in difference. Now season 5 and the first scene is about covid and wearing a mask and the Floyd issue. I refuse to watch this show any further simply because I do not believe bringing up the Floyd issue AGAIN as it just helps build the divide between those who are trying to unite instead of divide. Hollywood has decided they know better than EVERYONE else and it shows in their attempts at political direction. I wish they would just entertain and stay away from politics and issues that have no business being in politics. I mean I do not need a tv show to show me how to wear a mask or clean my hands. It seems like this is a liberal left show that will only pull you down into their fear mongering and urge to divide people.
