Barbershop the Series Slow at First but picked up super fast

Barbershop was on everybody's so so list. By now this show should have no problem getting viewers.The first 2 or three episodes were slow but it came together.The show is funny and entertaining.Maybe you have to be a certain or have a certain preference to laugh. Calvin is the mild argument fixer upper and everybody else is a great supporting cast. The run in and outs of the barbershop and its character are put together very well. I believe this show should stay on for another couple of years.Showtime doesn't really have any standout shows anymore.If you count weeds which probably wont come back on because the show was boring. But getting back on Barbershop the season ending left a big question for next year on what will happen. Seeing how Showtime has no premier shows this can really succeed .This is probably second only to Soulfood
