OrangeJello88 After watching a few episodes, there is obviously no point to this show other than the glorification of promiscuity and hard drug use. Do not let your children watch this.

twister I like Black-ish, but I think this spin-off is extremely bad. The show is trying too hard to switch the character of Zoey from a super popular high school queen to a dork-ish college girl. She is exaggerating everything around her. On top, the themes being treated such as drug addiction are superficial and are not consistent throughout the show. In one episode Zoey is a bad girl who doesn't respect her new friends, on the other is a drug addict, now, in the third episode it seems that she has fallen in love after kissing a guy. Instead of the writers creating a complex character, they are creating a new uni-dimensional character every episode. Don't waste your time on it. Go see Freaks and Geeks or the 70s show instead.

joanna-emd Two episodes in and Grown-ish is just bad. The narration works on Black-ish, but not here. The whole Breakfast Club thing might have been interesting to discover on its own later in the season when it made sense, but the narrator comparing the cast to The Breakfast Club at the intro made me think that none of the writers have seen The Breakfast Club.Like the show A Different World (Lisa Bonet), I think Grown-ish will do better with out the cross over character focus. Right now it's just trying too hard to be too much in twenty two minutes per episode. The heavy subject matter that they're trying to cover - like apparently rampant substance abuse on campus - seemed to be handled with indifference. It wasn't really funny and you can see every "very special episode" of 80's television heading your way, but it's taking multiple episodes to get there.Right now, the biggest problem is that the lead character/narrator is the least interesting one of the bunch. Her roommate seems to be a much more interesting character. The writers should have taken a page from A Different World and focused on the ensemble. Hearing about the ensemble as narrated by a boring lead isn't that interesting.

Tony T Highly disappointed,Im going to buy a different world dvd's. This show is way over the top.From the profanity, drugs, the overly aggressive sexual scene made me cringe and makes me want to go back to black-ish. Oh yea... an she narrates and looks at the camera. so a blind person can listen to her tell us the whole story. To chatty ... Its just not what i expected. Something's off with the writing, story or the way its executed. Some scenes just unnecessary. This was a great idea but...Gone are the days when you can watch tv with your family and not have to be shocked at what your viewing and hearing. Its not funny its just...i dont even know.Where are the good family shows, with lessons? On DVD
