Bob Hearts Abishola has shown us several different Nigerian customs throughout the years, like a wedding, and tonight at 8:30p on CBS, they will take us to a funeral. And after you watch the episode, you will want to have one. At least, I do.
But I got ahead of myself. Abishola’s (Folake Olowofoyeku) aunt died, and she has to attend the funeral in Toronto because her mom (Saidah Arrika Ekulona) can’t go since she is not an American citizen. Abishola doesn’t want to go because her aunt was mean to her when she first came to North America. So after she left her aunt, she never spoke to her again.
Since Abishola can’t handle it on her own, she will bring her friend, Kemi (Gina Yashere), with her. Because who doesn’t love a good Nigerian funeral?
While they are there, Abishola will learn about herself, and it will bring her peace.
As she finds peace, Bob (Billy Gardell) is struggling to make his first socks with his new factory. But, no matter what he does, they are not turning out the right way. Will he finally make the perfect sock? Let’s just say he will find a lucky charm in someone unexpected.
If you are not watching Bob Hearts Abishola, you are missing out on a funny and educational comedy. I have known several Nigerians in my life, and this show gets it right. So if you want to learn more about a culture we don’t know a lot about, then watch this sitcom. And if you don’t want to learn anything, then you can watch for the laughs!

CBS still hearts Bob Hearts Abishola |
| January 25th, 2023 under Chuck Lorre. [ Comments: none ]

CBS announced today that it picked up Bob Hearts Abishola for a fifth season. The Chuck Lorre comedy joins Ghosts, The Neighborhood, Young Sheldon, The FBIs, The Equalizer, and Fire Country on the 2023-2024 schedule.
The thing I love most about this show is how accurate it is to Nigerians. My dad had Nigerian aides, and I see so much of them in the characters in the series. I respect it when a show gets it right.

I am going to B Negative because CBS cancelled B Positive and more |

CBS killed more shows than one of their procedurals kill in an episode. Gone are B-Positive, Good Sam, How We Roll, and Magnum, P.I.
I have a feeling they are only going to have four comedies on the schedule in the Fall, and they are The Neighborhood, Bob Hearts Abishola, Young Sheldon, and Ghosts.
Personally, I never understood why they never did a Chuck Lorre night of comedy. They had four sitcoms from him.

America pulled out of Afghanistan, CBS pulls the plug on United States of Al |
| May 11th, 2022 under Chuck Lorre. [ Comments: none ]

CBS is starting to swing the ax, and they yelled timber to United States of Al.
I think they are making a mistake. Not only is the sitcom funny, but it also has an important message. We were able to learn about Afghan culture through Al’s character.
You see, the show is about Al (Adhir Kalyan), an Afghan who worked as an interpreter for the US troops in Afghanastin. He met Riley (Parker Young), a US Marine stationed there, and he invited Al to come back to America with him.
The season 2 premiere dealt with Al’s family being caught in the collapse of Afghanistan, and Al trying to get his sister out of the country.
Chuck Lorre knows how to create shows that are loyal to their character’s cultures. It is a shame that CBS didn’t stick with it. They better at least stay with B-Positive, or I will be negative.
