Actuakers One of my all time favorites.

Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good

Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

Hayden Kane There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

aj_ajc_aj I was introduced to this show when i was a little kid and i have been watching it ever since. im glad they still play the show on TV1 because i cant get enough of it. Martin has turned sitcom into a whole new level whether its with its outrageous characters (Sheneneh, Ottis, Jerome etc.) or whether its with the relationship between Gina and his friends. You can never get enough of the hilarious jokes Martin makes about everyone. This truly expresses the tile a laugh out loud show because she show will have you in stomach hurting tears.Unfortunately the show started to lose its hmf after martin was accused of sexual harassment. The last few episodes were just disappointing and was set as more for children audience than adult audience.

bosochima The first three seasons of Martin Lawrence's comedy were great, almost brilliant. Lawrence showed himself to be an incredible comedian and impersonator. The show had a crazy energy about it, and it was nice seeing another comedy with an all-black cast succeed.Unfortunately, the last couple of seasons of the show were horrible. The characters started using established tics and catch phrases as crutches. The writing got very sloppy, almost to where it seemed (to me) the actors were improvising half their lines. And Martin Lawrence, perhaps getting a little too enamored of his own success, got increasingly out of control in real life. How bad did it get? Eventually Tisha Campbell, who played Martin's girlfriend Gina, refused to do scenes with him! There's a point in the last season where you will not see the two actors in the same location at the same time. Like another popular sitcom featuring a stand-up comedian (Roseanne), Martin went in with a bang and out with a whimper. Still, it's worth catching the first seasons of the show to see Martin Lawrence at his best.

Tracy Ross (treboogie) "Martin" was the most hilarious show there ever was that hit TV. It was on everyone's TV schedule. This show has never steered anyone in the wrong way and never was 'not' funny. Two of my favorite episode was when Martin and Gina had bought a new bed and the decided to have sex and Gina got her head stuck between the bars of the metal headboard. They tried so hard to get it off by pulling and burning some of the bars off but was unsuccessful. On top of that, she had to give this big presentation at work so she tried to camouflage it with a big scarf and a big Diana Ross wig. It was so funny. The second is when they got married on the tropical beach. That was a dream wedding that included some of the ups and downs that would pop up before the actual wedding takes place. But it has always stood out in my head. "Martin" was the best show ever and I hope that they put it on DVD soon.

imlilshowoff My oh my, where do I begin? It's just a real shame that this show never won any kind of Golden Globe or for that matter any kind of acknowledgment from mainstream Hollywood for the work that Martin did on this show. In case you've never seen Martin its about a rude, comical radio disk jokey (Martin Payne) who lives in a modest apartment in Detroit. He has his boys of course: the misogynist dingbat (Cole Brown) and the sensible (Tommy Strawn). Then there's the light of his life (Gina Waters) whose a boogie business woman who somehow finds Martin as irresistible as he does her. And then there's her partner in crime (Pamela James) whose a tough as nails sort of man-hater (especially when it comes to Martin). But the best thing about 'Martin' I would have to say is the all the multiple characters that he played, which I don't think has ever been done consistently by anybody on TV except Flip Wilson. Everybody gave great comedic performances though on here, and yes even apple head, I mean Tisha Campbell was good too. And the writing for each episode was also on point. '92-'95 I'd have to say were probably the golden years of 'Martin', but then between the forth and the final fifth season the show was clearly in trouble. Martin's personal life was attracting more attention than the show, and then came the rumors that he was sexually harassing Campbell. She left the show towards the last season and as a viewer you could see that there was definitely something lacking. I know I lost interest but tuned in for the final episode which was ridiculous because Gina and Martin were never in any scenes together. Like every series finale the Paynes moved to California and left 42 (that's the apt. #). But still 'Martin' has remained on the tube thanks to reruns and we can understand once again why this show had it all. **** all the way. I love you Martin!
