The socially relevant half-hour isn’t a revolutionary development, but Jerrod Carmichael and company are continuing the proud tradition of capturing the particular rhythms of interfamily debates, pausing just long enough to let the audience reward them for their authenticity.
The show carries itself with a no-big-deal confidence, exploring subjects organically, as you would in a real conversation, and always rooting its one-liners in the psychology of its characters.
This is a sitcom, not a public service announcement. But you can certainly argue that The Carmichael Show is doing a public service. It isn't often you can call a sitcom brave. This is one of those times.
Uneven, but the core strength remains--a sitcom that embraces the uncomfortable, and sometimes the unmentionable.
Some comedies lull you to sleep; The Carmichael Show gives you a slap, pushes your head out the door and still gives you something to laugh about.
In the three new episodes I’ve see, the show too often makes the laughs secondary to its progressive messaging.
