But it's also a show about a black family in Montgomery in the late 1960s. Are you really surprised by its content? Was race not an issue in that particular setting?


I don't have a problem with that. I may actually be more interested if this show were released 10-20 years ago...(did I already say that in this thread?) but given the context of society today, where we are constantly beaten over the head with racial animosity toward white people...I have no desire to watch a show like this for entertainment. It would just annoy me as it is just more of the same.

I got about ten minutes in and the race stuff wasn't what bothered me, just the characters seemed pretty wooden. I like that Don Cheadle is narrating but some dude narrating isn't going to make it work. Probably recycle "The Wonder Years" name to draw in old fans, could've just named it something else.
