Keeley Coleman The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

divadiahann I was so glad to see The Gregory Hines Show on CBS for several reasons. One principle reason was watching a handsome, intelligent but witty widowed father raising his equally handsome and witty young son. I also loved the interaction between the 3-generations of family-grandfather/father/son of which Ben's brother was added to enhance the humor and story lines. Another principle reason I enjoyed the show so much was seeing the genuine love from the male standpoint in an African American family setting. Ben and his son Matty often spoke of the deceased wife/mother in many tender ways and their father/son relationship was heart-warming. Even the tough-love of Ben and Carl's father was laced with the unspoken love and concern for his now grown-up sons. I also liked how in the closing episode Gregory's outstanding dancing was featured in a surreal-dream type way. I sincerely hope that CBS or its syndication affiliate will release this show on DVD-I will definitely add this show to my collection.

bigmarkiestyle This was one of the best television shows on the air!! How nice and beautiful it was to see a TV show that showed three generations of Black males being supportive of and loving one another. Also, here was a show that was not afraid to show those males being affectionate with one another. Gregory Hines was incredibly charming and funny and Brandon Hammond was equally fine. I sincerely hope this show comes to DVD soon. It is well worth revisiting again and again. It is too bad that CBS only saw fit to give us one season of this beautifully done show, but I will be most forgiving if I can at least buy it on DVD (hint, hint!)!!!!

Al Boone I was an extra on this show for nearly every episode so I saw it from various perspectives. First, on the set, I found the principle actors, especially Gregory Hines, Bill Cobbs, Wendell Pierce, and Brandon Hammond to be very generous and personable people. Next, while watching the show, anyone could see each cast member enjoyed their role on this wholesome family show. I'd dare say that none of these actors would so much enjoy being involved the filth being called entertainment these days. We need better family sitcoms like The Gregory Hines Show on television today. If this show comes out on DVD, I'll be one of the first in line to purchase it. May Gregory rest in peace. He was a good and genuine man.

bythelightofthesilverymo The Gregory Hines show was a fantastic family comedy. The automatic click between the actors was reminiscent of the way the Cosby Show actors clicked right off the bat.Gregory Hines played a single father raising a bright son, with his brother and father "helping" along. His character's business as a book publisher added a lot of comedic interaction as well. All of the sub-characters were a perfect choice, from the restaurant owner to his business partner. It was a sitcom that crossed the racial lines. If it had been given a chance, it probably would have had a long run.This had to be one of the best Sitcoms of all time. Its so sad that an executive had to make sure it didn't work out. I watched it every week, sometimes having to scan the TV guide, trying to find out what night they had it on "this week".I know there was only one season of episodes, but I wish they would release them on DVD - I would buy them!
