Bernie Mac ... is as violent, foulmouthed, mildly homophobic, clueless, and manipulative as ever.

A mighty sitcom bursting with juicy ideas and energy.

Some of the humor here won't go down well in every home. But if you stick with the show through episode two, you'll see it's about the gap between Bernie's defiantly unsentimental attitude and the reality of his new role as a surrogate parent.
