Review
I was extremely shocked to see the overall rating of this show. It is highly misunderstood. In my opinion I think people just tend to blow it off because they assume it's a get get rich cheap quick cartoon from Seth MacFarlane.
They are wrong it has some of the funniest humor I have ever seen in it. I'll even admit it I did not give this show a chance in the least until it arrived on Netflix. I originally watched the season premiere got a few laughs then stopped watching because I had better things to do or watch. I was mistaken.
Yes at times it may make you feel as if you're on acid or shrooms or high in general.. but that's one of it's qualities. Very spontaneous clever and packed full of hilarious jokes. Joke after joke after joke yet they still manage to connect at an emotional level oddly enough or I may just be crazy with part. You can decide that.
I've noticed when I introduce to people to the show they are always kind of skeptical sort of like "I don't like this show it's not that funny. Let's just watch Family Guy." Then I show them a few choice episodes and they instantly fall in love. For example the episode where Cleveland Jr. and Kenny West (Kanye West) get in a rap battle. (*Brotherly Love.) It had us crying of laughter. Also the magical walrus that will appear at random times always just in time to save Cleveland his family or him and his friends. Cleveland always manages to crack us up with his random one liners too.
I think the show is a hidden gem and you should give it a chance. You will most likely warm up to it and absolutely love it. It always manages to put me in a good mood. I would love to see just as many seasons from The Cleveland Show as Family Guy or American Dad has.
