Watchseries; I thought the acting was good for the most part. Morris Chestnut always good with his sexy voice. Seems soapy, but if there are abs showing and some beautiful fashion and hair. I'm hooked!

Our Kind of People watchseries. It reminds me of Dynasty, Dallas, or Knots Landing but with better hair and clothes. I don't understand reviewers who are complaining about it moving to quickly, what the hell are they normally watching ??
I came here to add my review to try and bump up the number because there's only been two episodes so I don't get the negative reviews already.
It's entertaining and it's visually appealing and while I'm certain Angela is gonna end up being Teddy Franklin's daughter & Leah's half sister I'm gonna continue watching it anyway.
So far its better than anything on the STARZ or BET channels. Thank God they are actually showing black people for how we really look. We are not all light skinned with straight hair. Some of us are round or chubby. Im also grateful as heck the plot of this story does not revolve around "life in the ghetto" or something related to hip hop. Its not entirely unrealistic either bc there ARE wealthy black people (De Soto, Atlanta, areas in Maryland) and many of us are trying to or already establishing generational wealth for our families so this is, thank GOD, a fresh perspective. Ironically I had a conversation with an older man a few weeks ago about how its so imperative we leave a legacy to the next generation and Im glad this has been written for a story.
I love Yaya since way back as well as Morris and Papa Pope from Scandal lol. The acting is slightly above average and not amateur. If you could watch One Tree Hill u can watch this with no problem. One minor issue I have with stories about us is sometimes they do too much preaching about our culture rather than just showing. So theres these long matter of fact lines about what hair care means to black women or how we should think or behave as a people-as if we dont already know our culture or how to think for ourselves. Like what is that? But those moments arent as bad as how it is in the show Run the World-good grief.
Anyway, I dont think it'd hurt to give this a chance, especially if u are curious ab black culture or find black ppl attractive bc theres alot of eye candy and good fashion. If u are easily offended by big afro hair, an all black cast, or dialogue inspired by real history, and u really just cant see past all that, then yeah its expected for u to leave an ignorant low rating and think that anything like this is here to "cause division" smh.
It's a decent show so far but the plot is going at lightening speed. It's almost like a soap-opera in the way the story jumps around but if you're in-between shows it's ok to watch.
Every since the day I found out about this show when I was in the restaurant I was obsessed with the way the trailers were showing the fox website and tv promos. The way how the show was lasting beginning to end was beautiful. I couldn't stop obsessing how well the casting was, for once black dark skinned beautiful actors and actresses on mainstream tv. Especially because the producer knew what they were doing with the show. It was like I couldn't leave my seat from the drama that was getting build up for the season.
I loved the main character and her daughter they kinda felt refreshing you know like they weren't shown to be poor, ratchet, or ghetto. They seemed really likable to the stories and I personally love the performances from everyone.
You should give this show a lot of support and a chance to watch it.
This show has so much potential to be amazing. Blindly hating a show or giving it low rankings or believing that it is anti-white just because it is black led is.... problematic. Also, having a black led show is not something that creates division. It achieves representation and hope. I, for one, am excited to see where it goes.
