Yeah, this show is still firing on all cylinders and I'll miss it when it's gone. The way they brought together the two storylines in the second episode was perfect.

I'm a few episodes behind, but I am going to miss this show so much.

I just watched "Crank Dat Killer" and the sudden conclusion to the part with the wannabe rapper was great

I let the season build up and have started going through it since the finale is this week. What I've watched so far is IMMENSELY better than Season 3, IMO. A return to form and really great stuff.

Was nice to have everyone together for the finale. Well done episode in a great season. I laughed so many times. I’ll miss this show. It was never boring and always unexpected. A rare thing these days. I hope they release it on 4K UHD.

Not pulling any punches with the Tyler Perry episode.

Someone on this show hit just the right notes. When tracking down her daughter, I felt upset too. Some filmmakers just get it right.

Agreed. Even if you don’t like the stories they did, I don’t think you can say this show isn’t made extremely well. Great writing, direction and acting.

We haven't watched the finale yet but the safe farm episode was some of the best TV I've seen in a long time. Everything about it was perfect and hilarious.

Finishing up this series now.
Up to episode 8 The one that's some sort of parody documentary?

I guess this one's over my head, I don't get it.

It's been a runnign theme for awhile that some think that Goofy and Max are black and therefore A Goofy Movie is a black film. This film is beloved by a lot of black folks and even in the new real documentary about the film that aired last month, the filmmakers learned about this and were shocked but appreciative of all the love.
