    Absolutely Love It!!!! A MUST WATCH

    This show is so good I really hope it stays on for a long time. Everyone in this show show the best of their acting skills. I can't wait for the next season! I'm not going to give out any spoilers because you need to go watch for yourself, but I will say that it has Action, Thrills, Violence, Family, Love, Pain and Sorrow. Lord this show was SO FREAKING GOOD A MUST WATCH AND MY FAVORITE SHOW. The suspense alone will have you up waiting after 12 am for it to air. My husband didn't want to watch it and after about the first ten minutes of the first episode, he was all in. Just watch the show!!!!

    It's a Ten for Me

    This show is one for the books! I ordered BET+ just to give Average Joe a try and to support Deon Cole. It's a surprising breath of fresh air, well written and well acted by the entire cast. A cranky, crime dramedy that ranks up there with shows like Fargo and Breaking Bad. And it's just nice to see such a diverse cast with black folks at the helm, embroiled in a story line that is anything but typical. This Average Joe project is so far removed from what you'd expect from the BET network.

    The show's creator put some serious thought into the story and it just hits on all cylinders. Not sure where this will go after the first season or if it's simply meant to be one season, as BET is notorious for greenlighting shows and cancelling after one season. Hopefully Average Joe keeps going past one season or simply goes down as one of the best original shows the network has ever seen. Either way, bravo, Deon Cole and cast...bravo!

    Don't get the bad ratings

    The whole story line was good, the video production was a step up from low budget (which I love), but other than that it's a great story line. Cole did his thing on this! His facial expressions were ugly asl lol he looked constipated but overall his acting and the casting was great. This will go down as a classic movie, I know it'll be platinum in the black household. But a great series did not expect it to be this good, this was a show I needed in my life. Hopefully we can get more shows that are this intense and great of a storyline. I could've seeing this being a movie, but I think they did a great justice by spreading it out. The 10 million really was a great concept because it exposed everyone.

    Really fun to watch!!!!!!!

    This is a breath of fresh air!!! This show is solid, with great writing, acting, atmosphere and more. So many interesting elements- suspense, comedy, mystery. I am only going it a 7 to start because I haven't finished it yet, but I'm thinking I'm coming back to rate higher. I hope more show can evolve like this one on BET. This is HBO level! Keep this one going!!! I'm here for all of it! Love all the actors from the leads to the one liners! Every actor is solid on here! I like how this starts and develops. I wasn't expecting any of this. Deon Cole is layered. The other leads are good veterans as well. Been watching them and glad to see this hopeful successful show continue.

    BET don't cancel this one. Great story with potential.

    First and foremost, I love the characters and their development as the story progresses. Good writing, great acting and great casting is always a plus and will keep me interested in any show or movie. I enjoy the way the story is told. Each episode starts with a flashback to provide more background about each character. Deon Cole is a great comedian and is showing that he has range as a drama actor. I really hope this shows does not get canceled since it's on BET. I'd love to see it renewed for a season two! Is it perfect? No, however it has great potential to grow and become stronger over time.
