Heard Bill Simmons talking about this show in his last podcast and decided to give it a shot. It's a really unique show that alternates between comedy and drama like I don't think I've ever experienced before in a show. It also doesn't take serious issues too seriously. The characters are really interesting and easy to root for. Has anyone else seen this show? Thoughts?

I personally love the show. I'm a big fan of Donald Glover (Childish Gambino). The plot is cool and I love the writing, its really authentic. I'll be tuning in each Tuesday.

Louie is also a show that borders on Drama/Comedy. Worth a watch

 First episode was actually really good. We shall see if the writers can keep it up. I hope so.

Episode 5 had some of the worst basketball I've ever seen.

Worse than this:

And Urkel actually seems like he can play, too bad he keeps getting put in some of the worst tv basketball games of a time.

After 18 months with their Bigs, the Littles were: 46% less likely to use illegal drugs, 27% less likely to use alcohol, 52% less likely to skip school, 37% less likely to skip a class

This show is so freakin good.  The episode tonight was amazing.  I was in pain from laughing.  This is definitely the most creative show on television right now.
