Really Surprised!

Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.

Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

This show is funny, adorable, cute, inspiring, positive. Everything we want in a sitcom. One I can actually watch with kids. If ABC can keep all of those obnoxious "bachelor" shows, they can definitely bring this one back!!!

In the downtrodden community of Fort Grey, Cal, aspiring rapper Courtney Rose (Brandon Micheal Hall) runs for mayor to promote his music. T.K. Clifton (Marcel Spears) and Jermaine Leforge (Bernard David Jones) are his best friends and entourage. He lives with his postal worker mom Dina Rose (Yvette Nicole Brown). Former schoolmate Valentina Barella (Lea Michele) runs the opponent's campaign. With Courtney's shocking victory, Valentina volunteers to run his office. Corrupt councilman Ed Gunt (David Spade) is a political rival.The cast is amiable and the characters are sweet enough. Often, Courtney learns a lesson and grows as a character. Spade provides a good sleazy villain. It probably could have done something if given more time. The network cancels it after making 13 episodes. I actually expected it to stretch out the campaigning for the first year. That has great potential and the season could have ended with his surprise victory. Instead, this quickly turns into a standard sitcom. I'm not sure about creator Jeremy Bronson's intentions but he definitely stumbled upon a more uplifting portrayal of small city politics. It's got the underdog aspect and the feel-good lesson of the week.

after the funny but bland premier episode of this show I wasn't sure if I would enjoy it or not but gave it a second chance and I wound up glad I did I laughed and had a great time watching this everyone is pretty much likable here his 'boys' are hilarious and his moma is quote worthy and lovable and I adore lea Michele here she is beautiful and hilarious even Courtney himself is likable I recommend trying this one out if your looking for good family fun on Tuesday night

Synopsis: Teenager likes to rap, accidentally becomes Mayor of a somewhat rundown town.That whole process was presented in the Pilot, which wasn't funny at all. The pilot wasn't captivating, wasn't deep nor was it entertaining, and what is to come seems fairly predictable. Many pitfalls, many life lessons, many disappointed people, but in the end of the day it all works out, and he gets to rap too.Perhaps I am not the intended audience, but also the 16 year old me would not have watched this. It is simply too flat, too 'fake' and lacks soul, lacks a whole lot of soul.
