Ballers (TV Series) The Kids Are Aight (2018) User Reviews

This season is getting so good

[guapo_andres · 10/10 · 24 September 2018]

Now at episode 7, we can see Spencer in a lot of troubles to his business now that the boy is going to another team and he has to fix it all. And Rickey and his gang gives a lot of fun in this "white" party. But beyond the story, this episode talks about racism with that "White" people party & the corruption with Spencer going to jail and leaving him go threatening him so the boy wont go to any other team.

9/10 just for the closing!

Wonderful scene! The drama, the camera angles, the supporting actor (who plays JD character) was marvelous.

The Kids Are Alright

[bobcobb301 · 3/10 · 25 September 2018]

Seeing Obba Babatundé pop up in another good TV role at the end made the episode, but that isn't saying much.

This season's storylines make little to no sense. Spencer is risking serious jail time committing multiple infractions to get a TV deal that probably isn't worth it. Even if this kid is the best player in college football it won't make USC's ratings that great. And he'll leave for the NFL in 2-3 years so if they sign a 10 year deal that means they'll still struggle to cover the cost for most of it.

Renewing the show for Season 5 might prove to be a mistake.

This season is trash

[far-49056 · 2/10 · 24 September 2018]

The last few seasons were much better. This season sucks with a story line that appears to be going no where. also do we really need to deal anymore with bipolar Ricky, his character needs to be killed off.

Fire every new writer immediately

This show has become absolute garbage. Mendenhall needs to come back full time and save it

Politics

[tyral-hytche38 · 1/10 · 11 August 2019]

Just because HBO hate the PRESIDENT of the UNITED STATES Donald Trump they just had to ruin what was actually a very good show up until this episode, and make people think differently of characters I used to enjoy watching. That was very unnecessary bringing politics into this film. Wish I could give a 0

Political trash

[georgemartin21 · 1/10 · 24 September 2018]

The show was great until they jumped on the anti-Trump train and Colin kaepernick B.S. Why can't we just have some sort of entertainment left that hasn't been politicized. There will always be politics, but sometimes we just want to escape that stuff and indulge in mindless entertainment. I predict that this episode will mark the beginning of the end of this show. Too bad.

Politics is not entertainment!

How in the world did this series take off on such a different path so fast? Omigosh, it was so fun and quick and interesting and all of a sudden....nosedive. I wish I had a quarter for all of the series I've watched and as soon as they start talking about politics and political issues, they have one season, at most, left. The writers and directors should be able to learn from each other, that nobody wants this crap rammed down their throats when they are watching something for entertainment. Evidently they think they can sway minds by inserting this garbage into an otherwise fun show. This season has been horrible so far and it's getting worse with the introduction of politics in this episode.

Buh-bye!
