Short enjoyable episodes about parental advice.

Bernie Mac is a comedian gone much too early, that will be missed by a lot of people. My wife and I liked him very much so we decided to watch/rewatch the whole 104 episodes in a row, it's a good couple weeks of binge watching, the way we like it with series. Bernie Mac speaking directly to America, giving parental advice, getting angry and annoyed by the three kids, it's just a formula for success. A lot of scenes look familiar to a lot of families with kids, and that's what makes it entertaining. The first two seasons were the best in my opinion. I would rate those two with an eight, the others with a seven. Short funny episodes, perfect to kill time and have a little fun. The acting was good from everybody, even the kids with their own personalities, the surprise guests were also enjoyable to watch, which showed a lot of people enjoyed The Bernie Mac Show.
