Sadly Over-hyped

As Good As It Gets

If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

I was one of the fans who was heartbroken and relentless in trying to get The Game to return to TV. BET picked up the show, then coupled it with it's own new show, Let's Stay Together. Many of the characters are fun, however, some are a little goofy and unbelievable. The main characters, Stacy and Charles, are a fun and entertaining couple. Stacy is a doctor and he's a handyman or contractor. Her sister Tasha and her husband Jamal are super funny and complement the cast well. The sister Kita is a little too simple minded for me. I almost stopped watching it after the first season finale. I'd give that episode a big fat F! Mega dumb. It had great potential but they ruined it. I decided to see if they could recover in season 2 , and so far it's been pretty good. I don't like how irresponsible they are making Stacy out to be this season, especially since she's a doctor and was very capable before Charles. They should come up with more constructive ways to address these normal marital problems without the gross exaggeration.It's still a worthwhile watch, but I wouldn't call it a hit. it has potential if they allow Charles to be a man and Stacy to be smart.
