Aug 01, 2019season 4 has less songs and too much talking and not as good as it used to be
-
Mar 28, 2019Not even close to watchable.
-
May 30, 2018I personally enjoy this show more than I rate it on quality. Plays like a soap opera so buckle up and prepare to suspend reality for an hour.
-
Apr 18, 2018more serious and mysterious stuff but some plot may changed to fast that make the audience very uncomfortable .
-
Nov 06, 2017worst season of this season. absolutely horrible. can you make Cookie anymore ghetto. OMG. where did you find these writers and her whole persona is just terrible. Her costumes and her demeanor is degrading to women of color. Cant wait for season to end. Plz

Oct 13, 2017Loved Seasons 1 & 2 than they ran out of gas. Come on now kill somebody off or do something to change this blah narrative -- The Gay son meeting a girl last year was simply the stupidest TV episode of any show last season.
-
Oct 04, 2017Rebuilding is the first word that comes to mind for this season. Cookie and Lucious' relationship; Lucious' health and the Lyon family.

Oct 01, 2017Never have a seen such s poorly written piece of trash that panders to the lowest common denominator. The plot is spoon fed and predictable, and it perpetuates stereotypes that most of us do not aspire to. Not all black folks are like this people, and your kids shouldnt look up to these type of nonsense characters. I love Terrence Howard and Taraji, this show is no better than here comes honey boo boo. These rolls are beneath Terrence and taraji, they deserve so much better.
