This show is well written and hysterically funny. It presents and shows Black families as accomplished and diverse within the family based not on race but age. The teen angst is funny and a right of passage that transcends race and gender. The oldest daughter is popular and pretentious and the teen son is a nerd. What a combo! The youngsters are twins with the girl having the wisdom of an adult with the heart of a child (she is a scream) and the son is really cute and a ['cliche'] good dancer. Bonus: the little girl is portrayed as the more intelligent of the twins. Finally, the parents are funny characters while being role models with the wife a doctor and the father a successful marketing executive. They make a great team. Sometimes they team together and other times team with one or more of the kids at the expense of the other. It's an equal opportunity offender situation which in no way detracts from their individuality and personal accomplishments. I love 'Team Johnson' and appreciate the portrayal, celebration and comedy within a diverse Black family!

Regarding the negative comments and inference that the show is a Cosby ripoff and borders on racist is disingenuous at best. It stands on its own and I for one am sick of seeing Black Americans primarily being portrayed as uneducated criminals. Those who don't think this show is cleverly written both from an age (societal evolutionary perspective)and race perspective just doesn't get it and has no sense of humor. I do not see overtures of racism or anti-white sentiment either (FTR I am white). It gives a perspective as seen from the 'Black' race. News Flash - there is just as much diversity amongst the Black race as there is amongst the white race.

Do yourself a favor, watch it and you be the judge. If you are someone who can laugh at themselves and enjoy seeing families doing the same then don't miss this series. It is light and a refreshing departure from how Black families are typically portrayed and who are not relegated to living in a housing project. The characters are funny and make fun of themselves while being accomplished. Alert....YEAH - no murders, incarcerations, or police situations...just plain light hearted silliness.
