Love this show
8 August 2014 | by hosepwerk – See all my reviews

If you love comedy. If you like new jokes If you want to have fun for 20 min This is the show to watch. The jokes + characters are epic. Balance is perfect, and i cant wait to watch episode 2. BLACK Jesus YEAAH !!! Watch the Trailers and watch the show, i think this will win some prices, at least i hope so. The show starts of with one of the funniest comedians in history and the first joke is already making you crack-up. PEACE! I think 90% of the actors i don't know but i will follow them in the future. this is just 1 A-CLASS show and this should be cause this comes from the maker of The Boondocks Rated 8.4 on IMDb. Cant wait, cant wait , but we have to wait for episode 2, until then spred the word, Jesus IS BACK + BLACK = EPIC
