I enjoyed it but not as good as the first two 3 out of 5 stars.

Chris has grown up with the show he must be going through puberty, his voice sounds very different now. I loved the first 2 seasons but I must say season 3 is little slow pace and not as fun as the first two.
They have developed a several characters in the show (babershop boys, homeless guy, etc) but I personally dont find them funny at all. I think the dad & mum are great though, brilliant actors!
25-30 day wait 1 out of 5 stars.

If you wish to make a purchase form this seller(Royal Video) please flee... It took them over 20 days to ship my product. Remember they get their money before you receive your product. It was very misleading when told your order will be shipped two to three days later (and not).. If you are willing to wait 25 to 30 days for your order then go ahead and order from them (Royal Video)....(Purchased on 09/23/2008 received on 10/21/08) Only after I contacted AMAZON did I receive my product. I emailed them on two different occasions to check on my order and I didn't even get a kiss my toe response back. I wish I hadn't ordered form them at all. Unpleasant experience / wait.......

UH OH!!!!! Edited Versions????? 3 out of 5 stars.

I just purchased season 2 of "Everybody Hates Chris", and immediately upon returning home from the store, noticed these dreaded words on the back of the box.."SOME EPISODES MAY BE EDITED FROM THEIR ORIGINAL NETWORK VERSIONS." Not having seen these episodes during their network run, I have no way of knowing what, if any, scenes have been edited? And before I dare open the set, i'm hoping someone who did see them on TV before the DVD release can give a proper review and list any and all changes that were made? If there have been scenes edited out, i'd like to ask CBS DVD one question? WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY?????????????? It's bad enough that old time favorites like Happy Days and WKRP In Cincinnati, etc, are being released to DVD in severely edited versions because of corporate laziness and the greedy practices of the music industry? (hmmmm too bad we can't sue them the way they're suing us these days lol) But why in the world would there be a problem showing the complete, unedited versions on DVD of shows that were in their original network run only a year ago? Surely the silly copyright problems preventing older shows from being released uncut have been settled for the newer shows? Or should we just accept the fact that the loyal fans of these great shows will forever be screwed by corporations that will never give a damn about anything but our money?

Imagine an urban version of 'The Wonder Years' 5 out of 5 stars.

Add to that some of Malcolm In The Middle's humor, and you got one of the finest shows on TV. Chris Rock and Ali Roi have managed a witty show with characters many of us can relate to, well written plot lines, and some 80s nostalgia.
Everybody Hates Chris Show DVD 5 out of 5 stars.

One of the funniest TV shows around. Tells of this kid's trials and tribulations of dealing with his family, growing up in a primarily black urban neighborhood while being bussed to an all white school. This is a must. Hysterical!!! Can't wait for Season 2 to come out.
The first year of Chris Rock's "autobiographical" Emmy-worthy series 5 out of 5 stars.

Tyler James Williams has the title role in this comedy gem, now in its second year on the CW Network. Creator (and narrator) Chris Rock has crafted a show that chronicles (with much "poetic license") his growing up in the Bedford-Stuyvesant neighborhood of Brooklyn and paints a warmly humorous look at his family.
Williams is perfect as the boy that must deal with home life as the eldest that is held responsible for his younger siblings while dealing with a school where he is an oddity: the only Black person in the school. The latter allows Rock to mix comedy with social commentary, something that he does quite well.
The rest of the cast is fantastic. Terry Crews plays the stern and hardworking father, Julius; Tichina Arnold (formerly of Martin Lawrence's series) shines as the mother; Tequan Richmond is Chris's younger but larger and more-appealing-to-the-girls brother Drew; Imani Hakin is Keisha, the sister that makes life miserable for her older sibling; and Vincent Martella plays Chris's only friend at school, Greg.
The twenty-two episodes on the disc are self-explanatory and offer a sly nod to the show's premise by containing the words "Everybody Hates" in their titles ("Everybody Hates Basketball," "Everybody Hates Sausage," " Everybody Hates Food Stamps," and "Everybody Hates the Gout," just to cite a few).
The compilation disc also contains cast commentaries on selected episodes and fascinating featurettes on the director/co-creator, the integral part that music plays in the show, and auditions, along with others.
The quality of the DVD is excellent and the show is presented in the widescreen format.
Hopefully, sales will be strong enough to persuade the release of season two at its end.

I started watching this show because living in Switzerland offers a limited choice of American programs. I found it really made me laugh and having grown up in New York in the 80s, triggered a lot of memories. I could relate to the humor and found the plot/story line/characters really entertaining.
Recently I visited LA and did a tour of Paramount Studios. We were in a group of 4 people and the guide. He took us on the soundstage (the set was of the apartment the family lives in, and it was amazing to walk through the rooms where they all "lived" and even get the chance to sit on the living room couch).
When we were done (being all sound stage struck) the guide told us that they were filming part of the last episode in series 4 in the other studio (the scene took place in the high school) and we were welcome to go and take a look.
We were welcomed with open arms. Ali Le Roi introduced us to the cast that was filming and we got to take pictures with and talk to all the talented wonderful people who were working that day. I have to say that the cast of this particular show are the most warm hearted and fun people I have met in a long time. Tyler James Williams (Chris) joined us and agreed to let us take a picture of us with him. That picture is of a young man with a winning smile and a whole lot of talent.
We spoke to the producer who let us listen to the takes on the head phones while they were taping, and he told us that what make this show so special is the amazing relationship the cast and crew share, and this was very apparent.
Since then I have bough series 1-3 and have enjoyed every minute. This series radiates the love and dedication that all these talented people put into every episode. I love this show, and can highly recommend it to anyone who wants to experience a series where the people who make it love what they do.
My hat is off to Chris Rock and Ali Le Roi for creating a show I will watch again and again, each time feeling like I have just experienced something great.
Thank you to the cast and crew who let us see what happens "behind the scenes". In my opinion, anyone who watches this show has a widow into what may seem like a normal sitcom, but in reality is a true labour of love which makes you laugh out loud again and again.

Inspired by his childhood experiences comedian Chris Rock narrates the hilarious touching story of a teenager growing up as the eldest of three children in Brooklyn New York during the early 1980s. Uprooted to a new neighborhood and bused into a predominantly white middle school two hours away by his strict hard-working parents Chris struggles to find his place while keeping his siblings in line at home and surmounting the challenges of junior high. This responsible resilient adolescent brings a distinct funny spin to his everyday trials and traumas in this single-camera comedy.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: TELEVISION/SERIES & SEQUELS UPC: 097361375441 Manufacturer No: 137544
