5/5
It's the rare 30-minute show that strikes the perfect balance between humor and impactful storytelling. Go to Full Review Brooke Obie The Grio Jul 20, 2023
This hilarious show goes the distance, exploring the pain and comedy of a single mom reconnecting with her estranged father who’s been incarcerated for nearly two decades. Go to Full Review Dustin Rowles Pajiba Mar 31, 2023
If there’s a knock against Unprisoned, however, it’s that it isn’t a loud show; there aren’t a lot of character or plot twists, and no there are no scenes in the series designed to go viral. The cast is great. The writing is smart. The vibe is chill. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

See more Marcel B @RT31790113 Mar 16, 2023 Great cast (especially Delroy Lindo). Good writing! See more Tiffany G Mar 12, 2023 I watched the first season in two days! This is a great show! It's storyline may seem extreme but then it takes you to a place that helps you relate to every character. The scenario may not be the same but you can relate in a emotional way, while laughing to the comedy that this show displays. This is a must watch and can't wait until season 2! See more Sarah Z @RT07784604 Mar 11, 2023 Really funny and entertaining. See more Valencia H @Valenciah2435 Mar 11, 2023 Love it ! Only thing I don't like is the child cursing!
