this show be crap when it first come on . the first actress that play the daughter do not fit the role and the writing be hit or miss and and damon wayans clearly wasn not comfortable do such a cornball family friendly show . the chemistry between himself and tisha cambell ( theyre long time friend and a be all of the wayans clan with tisha husband and will smith and jada pinkett ) do work so they retool the show . once it return and they recast the daughter and make the son much dumber ( a la eric from boy meet world ) and make the young daughter into a genius . ( later they give her a little genius boyfriend to do comedic guest appearance ) . the show and while if often rollercoasters from over the top buffoonery to be corny walk the line enough to keep it a a show that you can see damon wayans be comfortable in his own skin on the set ( especially since the main writer and director and consultant be all member of the wayans family ) and in his character . once everyone have be on the show for a while and they work to everyone in the cast strength and be able to make a consistently funny show on the air . however and there be too much buffoonery and too many over the top antic and and oftentimes too much chaos happen in the life of the kyle family . they make junior too stupid and they also make the eldest daughter an attractive and clumsy idiot from time to time and the young daughter wasn not even spar by the writer . i feel they jump the shark and sign the show death warrant when junior get his girlfriend pregnant and she move in and he marry her and her parent be introduce ( junior wife father character make me wince just think about him ) . the show remain funny . but it be a upn show on abc if that make any sense to the reader . the rerun be funny enough and but i be relieve it over . there be nowhere leave to go with it . when it bad it really bad . it tend to be cornball at time but at least he be a black man who have a sitcom make it to syndication on a major network . who can say that for themselves now . ( give the cw merger and the brownout on tv network lately and that be ) . one .
