This show is horrible, not entertaining, that Uncle Johnny seems to be trying to act badly or is he that stupid? Won't last long I am sure. I am usually pretty easy to entertain but this show is just bad. It is based upon this kid But everyone is just running around exposing their ignorance. Maybe they are just acting ignorant for the money. They should call it stupid rednecks. There are some reality t.v. Shows I enjoy immensely and was anxious to see this first episode but it will not be Making the list of shows I watch. I knew eventually reality TV would start to explore different options but couldn't we come up With something better? Come on Reelz Channel, get it together.

I thought the purpose of Hollywood was to entertain. This show falls woefully below the mark. I will always change the channel if I see this show coming on. I don't understand how anyone in Hollywood could possibly think that this show would be entertaining. It's disgusting. I would weep for our generation if anyone in any walk of life would find this entertaining. It would make me ill to think that this country has stooped to a point where anyone would find this entertaining. These people clearly have not taken in interest in taking care of themselves-- overweight, no teeth, crude language...WHY would you ever even think that this could be what the American public would want to view?

I love this show and stumbled upon it accidentally one night. The reason I love it , is the real love that Michael has for his Mema is genuine. The fact she isn't reserved in her feelings of wanting him to succeed and the matriarch of the family makes me love her all the more. I didn't have grand mothers or grandfathers but he is blessed to have who he has in life and the fact that she laughs and enjoys life is a blessing. If ya'll send em to Savannah there is the Irish festival lots of gingers, there is so much they could see here and enjoy as a family. Michael your a inspiring fellow due to the fact that you love your grandmother and that you are who you are and that is the best thing to be REAL . People have forgotten to love their elders and their families Love and Light Kelly Spurlock

Funny. Mema is great. It's entertainment n it's funny. Characters are stereotypical but that's how people are. The show has probably improved their life situation anyway and hey they have something to look back on it says there's 23 episodes that could be one or two seasons that it lasted but I'm not going to put them down they're probably being taken advantage of by greedy executives somewhere but everybody seems to be having fun and the modern day Beverly Hillbillies that's a good name for it and for those who think it's another redneck version of Honey Boo Boo well that's a good show too. I tend to like to see how real people from all walks of real life live. Those shows bring out and show the way of life for some people that rich folks don't know about. It's all in good fun.

I find Hollywood Hillbillies very entertaining. It reminds me of some of my "country hick" relatives from east Texas. I honestly think this family is not "stupid" as some have suggested, but intelligent, honest country folk. I like the fact that they are enjoying themselves with their adventures in a world not known by most people. I, personally, would like an opportunity like that! I also love the fact that Michael loves his Mema and the rest of the family, and is sharing his success with them, and hope Hollywood does not spoil or change any of them. I sincerely hope the family saves enough money to live comfortably after the show.
I'm generally not one to argue simply for the sake of arguing, but the two previous reviews have earned a retort. HH is silly and crude, our characters are not physically pretty people and once in a while it comes off as scripted, but I must say it made me laugh. While the 'story' revolves around Michael, Me-Maw is the driving force of its lite humor. I can certainly see how this show wouldn't appeal to everyone, but it's not hateful or truly offensive, no more than any other reality show. Yes, Me-Maw's every other word is dam_, but since when has that been offensive? I am from the deep south, and even though the show is mocking rednecks, I can relate to a few of the characters and enjoy it nonetheless.
