I wathced last night's "Under One Roof", mynet's new sit-com at 8:30. It's the WORST show in the history of sit-coms. Not only is it not funny (Flava Flav plays...wait for it... Cali Cal), but it's about the most stereotypical show when it comes to races. You have an Asian housekeeper who not only dresses like those tai chi group members, but she speaks "bloken" (aka broken) English and karate chops.
You have the new Mexican gardener who not only speaks like a middle-schooler would imitate hispanics, but drinks tequila on the job.
The old gardener who was fired (and also Mexican) hides his whole family in the mansion. When his family (all 100 of them) runs out of the house, there're people with sombrero's, live chickens, etc.
Honestly, I'm surprised in this day and age that this show would be allowed to air, let alone on a "network" channel. UNfortunately, you HAVE to check this show out once. It's kind of like when you eat something so absolutely disgusting; you make your friends taste it so they know just how horrible it actually is. Or it's like how you have to climb to the top of the Statue of Liberty (back when you could go to the crown) just to realize it was a complete waste of time. And therein lies the essence of "Under One Roof."moreless

Show Summary
EDIT
Flavor Flav from Public Enemy and reality-show fame stars in Under One Roof. Flavor Flav plays the role of Calvester Hill, an ex-convict who moves in with his very wealthy and conservative brother Winston, played by Kelly Perine. Calvester's past often shows up on the doorstep of the Hill household and Winston's yuppie family must adapt to some of Calvester's questionable visitors. Whether it's an old cell mate who decides to make Winston's home home or an angry parole officer out to get him, Cali-Cal always keeps his new housemates on their toes.moreless
