My patience to s wearing thin again


The kid playing Ezekiel is really starting to get on my nerves.Not correctly casted fort the part.Nope I'm changing channels for the fourth or 5th time.The only actors worth their salt are Smit and Esposito.I am disenchanted with the others or most of them anyway.

I hear you on Zeke. Here and there he gets slightly irritating. But, yo, Shamiek Moore...dude is awesome. He's got s bright future ahead of him.

Holy *beep* just read an article that said the producers are recasting everyone because of your one review in particular. They were devastated to hear that you were not pleased with their show and would like to meet with you personally.

To the OP:

What are you talking about? Justice Smith not only is good as Zeke, he nails that role, and I love his Afro on top of that. He really makes you fell Zeke's pain and desperation to make something of himself that will get him out of his environment. When you say he's not cast correctly, I completely disagree with you. I also like his rapping throughout so far---he's pretty good at that,too===especially in the scene where he first starts freestyling in front of a crowd for the first time---loved it.

Justice Smith was ok in the role, not great and certainly didn't nail the role.

However, he's young and with time and maturing will no doubt go on to bigger and better things. He's definitely talented!

Yes, he did.

What "channel" are you watching this on?
