The show centers around a fictional version of [[TheDanza Jerrod Carmichael]] as he tries to build a life together with his girlfriend Maxine (Creator/AmberStevensWest), while having to deal with the antics of his parents Joe (Creator/DavidAlanGrier) and Cynthia (Creator/LorettaDevine), and the spectacular fights between his brother Bobby (Creator/LilRelHowery) and his brother's hopefully-soon-to-be-ex-wife Nekeisha (Creator/TiffanyHaddish).
Much of the humor comes from the Carmichaels' working-class sensibilities clashing with those of Maxine's upper-class upbringing while Jerrod is stuck in the middle trying to keep everyone from getting too nasty with varying results.
At first it seemed as if NBC was burning-off yet another short-lived comedy, but after a surprisingly strong showing for the first six episodes, the network renewed the show for a second season, and then a third. In June 2017 Jerrod Carmichael announced he was stepping down from the series, after which NBC announced its cancellation.

When he personally tracks her down, she assures him she wanted to have sex with him and consented... she just regretted it because he was ''really'' awful in bed.
