Beginning with its assured pilot episode, it’s love at first sight for Everybody Hates Chris. This loosely autobiographical family sitcom has a distinctive voice (belonging to co-creator Chris Rock, who also serves as narrator) and a strong sense of time (1982-83… More >>
Everybody Hates Chris – The First Season

This is one of the funniest shows around. I really love it. Chris Rock narrates, while actors act out the story of his childhood when he was 13 years old. It’s about Chris and his family moving out of the projects and making a new start. Chris goes to school by himself to a good school in an Italian neighborhood (a real long haul) while his two siblings (younger brother Drew and younger sister Tonya go to their same school) so he has to learn to fight new battles as he tries to fit in. His first day there he faces a bully but also makes a new friend Greg (who couldn’t win a fight if he tried). Back at home there is his dad Julius (played by the hilarious Terry Crews) and his take-no-nonsense mum Rochelle. His dad is really tight and tries to save money wherever he can and however he can.
All the episodes are called Everyone Hates The … and each episode keeps getting better and better. To me, my favourite is episode 7 called Everyone Hates The Babysitter. Julius and Rochelle decide to have a date night and hire this girl to babysit the three kids. She always leaves the house to take care of her business. That in itself is funny but then Julius and Rochelle are at a restaurant that doesn’t accept their coupon and the restaurant gets robbed.
It’s such a great show and you will be in stitches watching it. Chris Rock narrates perfectly and you can see his life coming to life in each episode. I love it and hope you enjoy it and are as entertained by it as much as I am. I can’t wait to get my copy.

Comedian Chris Rock created Everyone Hates Chris. This show is a cross between American Graffitti and The Wonder Years.
What makes this show funny is the reason The Wonder Years were funny. A family show covering LIFE, real life-where there is so much humor.
It is worth it-YES. The humor crosses color lines and is worth it

In the normal live it happens like this and the people chosen for the video have the right faces for their personage when watching the serie you feel like it’s real, i want to know if their are more videos of everybody hates chris, if not it would be fine to make some more seasons before teh boys grow up.

I just purchased this DVD based on the few shows that I watched. The show is about Chris Rock family and school life in his early teens. Anyone can relate to his family (the bratty youngest child, the perfect child, mom who can get over on dad anytime and the loving, but cheap father).
I loved every show!!

Everybody Hates Chris is the funniest show that has ever been made. The family is crazy. The mom can’t stop eating so many chocolate turtles! I want the DVD to be out soon.
