Detroiters

I don't know how this would play if I didn't come from Detroit, but I do, and I love the many references to Detroit culture: Mort Crim, Vernors, Detroit R&B and Soul Music... The entire cast is terrific but Sam Richardson is one of those brilliant comic actors that comes along every once and awhile, like Pryor and Murphy, who have have instinctive comic timing and charm. He's instantly lovable even while his character is displaying less than a admirable behavior.

This show has its own quirky pacing and self awareness that makes it distinctly it's own. I hope people discover it. It's a perfect little comic gem.

Detroiters is a show that is willing to be absolutely ridiculous while still telling a story that takes place in the real world. The show is shot on location in Detroit and the guest stars are usually people from detroit. That's the best part of the show, detroit itself is a character in the show, one that the two stars make fun of in a loving way. Detroit is as essential to Detroiters as New York is to When Harry Met Sally. The adds made in the show are based on the adds the two stars of the show watched growing up in detroit. In real life Tim is married and Sam is single. In real life both of the lead actors are best friends. This show is wonderfully original and surprisingly autobiographical, there's nothing else like it. If you are ready to watch a show that is orriginal, funny, and heartwarming, watch detroiters.

Its a great show. Its mindless and really funny, just like a comedy should be. I even got the kids singing some jingles from the show. "Devaraux" lol, this was my favorite ad they did.

its not a show where you have to watch from the beginning of the season, each episode seems to have its own story. its worth dvr'ing.

Its not racist, like some are saying. Its just funny.

There is every little Michigander thing you can imagine included. As a Michigander from Ypsi, this is gold! Every MI born actor guest stars even Joumana (if you know, then you should be watching this). It's absolutely absurd a lot like Broad City and The Office, just totally randomness and that's why it's amazing. In one episode, one the main characters is accidentally convinced he's a stripper...accidentally convinced that he is something he isn't 🤣 omg it's hysterical. If that kind of comedy doesn't suit you, that's ok. At least watch an episode or two for the Michigan tidbits, those are so worth it. Anything MI related is name dropped and honestly, it's refreshing. How many shows do we watch set in N. Y., Chicago, Miami, L. A., etc It's about time Detroit got some spotlight! We're always getting negative limelight and Detroit and MI in general, have so much to offer.

I love their friendship and the jokes are funny and if you are a local, there is a LOT of inside jokes and celebs. Kinda like a love letter to the good parts of Detrizzle. I could deal with a couple of more seasons of this show. I wish them luck in future projects. They did a good job with this show.
