Through DaCosta's Angela it sparks a dialogue about the language and lineage of Black hair that's intricate, detailed and celebratory. ... Another is subtler but important, which is that it depicts the exclusive stratum of Black America that runs on inherited generational fortune and power. ... You should watch because it's a reliable weekly dose of sparkle, glam and extra-ness, along with plenty of hair inspiration, in a dreary world.

Based on what [series creator Karin Gist] showed in the first two episodes, I doubt this series will devolve into the kind of soapy debauch seen on other Black-headlined dramas. She seems more interested in building a world, one where Black people run successful companies, hobnob in elite clubs of their own making and act as though the rest of us don't even exist.

Our Kind Of People is a frothy show with a more serious underlying message about wealth, racism and women supporting each other. If you miss Empire, it should fill that hole in your schedule quite nicely.
-
The pilot is uneven, but the cast is talented enough that I’m hoping things come together in future episodes.
-
A little bit of "Dallas," a little bit of "Empire," "Our Kind of People'' is a whole lot of what you expect it to be. ... Silly, fun, frothy, watchable.
