Truly awful. Even if this weren't laced with a sledgehammer and an overtly sanctimonious approach towards racism, it's just poorly done. Every single character feels one-dimensional if not a full-blown caricature, and the dialogue is utterly cringe. It reminds me of a less talented Aaron Sorkin (whom I can't stand), writing argument after argument to win against themselves. All the while, snarkily gloating about being able to defeat their own straw men. And regarding the black-face party that is the rather convoluted seedling for the plot... Not to suggest black face doesn't happen, it still does. But it's frankly overrepresented. I have been to countless Halloween/Frat/Costume parties over the years. Not once, ever, has a even a single person donned blackface in my experience. Let alone a whole coordinated and themed event take place. "It's a thing white people do. Google it", the show tells us. I don't want to go down the rabbit hole of explaining how stupid college students ignorantly engaging in (literally) surface-level racism is so not an equivalent as to when, say, lynchings were normality, but I will say such occurrences are still atypical. Speaking of convolution, the classical/operatic score only compounded the pretentiousness and sanctimoniousness of the entire experience. Hearing Carmen while being spoon-fed wokeness is just a laughable approach. Kubrick you are not. Lastly, the showrunner who just resigned due to Dave Chapelle is a WHITE trans-woman! Why is that particular racial demographic ok instead of someone of color? I hate when alleged moralisms have no logical consistency.

This was very racist, I don’t get why if the black people are racist like they always are against the white, then is ok, the opposite is unacceptable. This was just a racist crap, I’ll give zero.

If it wasn’t obvious this show is very hypocritical. The show is very racist but you could’ve got that from the name. Annoying uninteresting characters,bad writing,below average direction. It’s just not good and if that’s not enough it is racist and offensive.

I mean, what is there to say. The irony that this show claims to be against racism while being this racist is palpable. Not worth a watch and a reason for the ongoing divide.

One of the best original series on netflix. If you read the bad reviews from here you will know that the series has hit who it should.

One of the best series nowadays. Racism is still strong in america and the show portraits that. In the second season it becomes more clear why people usually criticize movies or tv series about black people. It's disgusting to see a tv show critic acclaimed like this to have a 3.6 user score.

It's an amazing portrait of society. A must-see series, especially, for fear white people!

The title of the show is racist, you can't justify it at all. If it was called Dear Black People you can imagine the fuss people would create. Don't just lump people into race, judge an individual by her or his actions.

Racist and pathetic this is even okay. What if there was a show called "dear black people". Yeah there wouldn't be because its not okay just like this isn't. And portraying trump supporters as kkk members is a joke.
