Jerrod and his therapist-in-training girlfriend, Maxine, are intelligent, ambitious and ready to take the next step to building a fulfilling life by moving in together. The one thing holding them back is Jerrod's loveable but spirited family. At home he has a brother, Bobby, who has a big personality which he uses in his endless string of hustles, his obstinate father, Joe, and his Jesus-praising mother, Cynthia. Together, the three of them test Jerrod and Maxine as they learn about romance, family and trying to stay sane.

4/5
All in all, "Everybody Cheats" is a great introduction for newcomers and a strong follow-up to the show's first season. With next week's Cosby episode on the horizon, there's plenty of reason to believe that The Carmichael Show will only get better. Go to Full Review
