A Massive Split Spoils the Show For Me
28 July 2017
I loved watching the show when we had the single Mom and her kids living in a mansion with Marion. Lots of the humor derived from Debbie and her interactions with her kids and navigating life, wrangling in her daughter and dealing with a boss that was a stereotype but done well enough to enjoy her character

Austin was an Urkel lite character that I feel didn't overstay his welcome and was a good balance

Then came Season 3 and no Jackie. I felt Jackie was the heart of the show and grounded it

After Season 3 I lost interest and it seemed like a carbon copy rather than the fun romp it used to be dealing with two headstrong leads that learned to respect one another.

I feel Kim Wayans was added to fill the Jackie void and why Tiffany stayed was just a massive plot hole, and adding Alfonso Ribeiero was just Carlton personality with another name.

I simply watch to Season 2 and leave it. I've watched some of the later episodes but it just feels a massive letdown from the earlier gold seasons.
