After it was done, my dad said "That wasn't very good". It's probably the first time my dad's ever had an opinion about something I watch.
Still, I liked it. As an avid reader of the comic strip, I know what to expect of an Aaron McGruder creation, and as such, I was readily prepared for everything in this show that normally would have shocked the more wholesome audiences. Granted, there are a few areas where the show isn't perfect - the pacing, for instance, was fairly slow in this episode, but that's primarily because this episode was spent establishing the characters' personalities for those who aren't familiar with them. But the humor was accurate and funny, and I actually noticed a few lines borrowed from the comic strip (such as Granddad's discussion on gay marriage beginning with "Let me first say that all marriage is wrong..."). Even if nobody else in my family likes it, I'll be sure to keep an eye on this series.
4.5/5
