Survivor's Remorse

Definitely a Keeper! Almost wanted to subscribe to cable channel just to ensure I did my part to keep on cable listing. I viewed Season 1 & 2 on DVD and seriously debating on whether to sign up for Starz for just this one show.

Will confess it's not for everyone and definitely NOT a family show. If you like Ballers than it's on par. If you like Power than it's on par. If you like shows like Cheers/etc, stay away or watch with open-mind....

While Survivors Remorse is definitely far from perfect... the show in its first season has potential. I thought the writing and acting was okay not great. It held my interests and I felt like I began to identify with some of the characters. The main character or at least the focus of the show Cam Calloway is probably one of the least interesting characters on the show and fails to truly establish an identity. This I believe is ironically an accurate portrayal of a young basketball star who has focused their entire life on becoming a pro athlete and lacks a genuine persona. He's basically a super talented basketball player with a huge heart... but that's pretty much all we see. They've gotta work on building that character and making him more interesting. Even if Survivors Remorse doesn't go further I'm glad they put it out there. You definitely have my support!

I truly enjoy watching Survivors Remorse. My husband and I watch it together. The show provides comedy that most upcoming black people can relate to. I also love the piece of wisdom that is subliminally displayed in each episode.

It is so refreshing to see many dark skinned women with positive characteristics.

The actors all resemble characters that we have in our family in one way or another. From a woman's point of view I did not find the comedy degrading or offensive. My husband thinks the show I'd hilarious and that the show is telling people it is possible yo start from a low income, single parent home and use your talents to become successful. His cousins character provides positive money management skills that everyone should consider.

One of HBO's pride and joy programs, Entourage, tells the story of four friends who come together to make it in Hollywood. Now, this Starz program, takes that same idea and brings it into the family. The cast of Survivor's Remorse is amazingly funny and brilliant (especially the wonderful Mike Epps, who plays Julius). Honestly, when I first started watching this show, I was afraid I wasn't going to enjoy it, but as I continued watching, I was mesmerized. I binge-watched the first season without moving from my chair and now with the release of season two, I cancel my existing Saturday plans to watch the new episodes live. I recommend that you watch this show if you enjoy Basketball or Entourage.

This show starts off good, but as the seasons progress it gets much better, with much more substance. The actors are great. Everyone holds their own and more. Really enjoyed it and wish there were more seasons. Binge watched it in one week. Missing the characters already.
