I watched the premiere of Everybody Hates Chris tonight on CityTV, a show I have been looking forward to ever since I saw the teasers for it on MuchMusic a couple weeks ago. It didn’t have me rolling on the floor, laughing so hard I was crying or anything like that, but it certainly was funny.
The show follows a thirteen year old Chris Rock throughout his daily life. Tyler James Williams plays the young Chris, and Mr. Rock himself provides narration. The opening episode introduced us to his family, his neighbourhood, and his school. The laughs came mostly from Chris Rock the narrator, or from his parents, not from Chris Rock the kid, which I guess kind of surprised me.
The show wasn’t as funny as Chris Rock’s standup comedy, but I guess that’s harder to accomplish in a sitcom. Also, this episode was the first one, so there needed to be a bunch of introduction stuff. Even still, I rather enjoyed it. I’ll be watching again next week!

I half-watched it becuase "ER" was on the same time even though they should totally cancel it since it’s getting so boring. What can I say? I’m a die-hard fan.
Anyways, "Everybody hates Chris" was pretty funny. I really like the dad.
