    This isn't a great show, but at points it's watchable. That's a win in today's network TV sitcom landscape. Still, it's disheartening that the once proud Peacock has been reduced to this, a sitcom built on cliches and politically incorrect conversations. Ugh.

    This show could really be more! The actors are all wonderful! The writing is the issue! Maybe hire the Wayans Brothers? That would be my suggestion,as well as give the little girl a bigger part! Again...it's not the actors,I love them all..change the writers,and bring it back with a new reboot!

    Truth Be Told is more of a "look at me, I'm not PC!" shout of self-regard.

    The first episode's reflexive need to be topical quickly feels more like running through a hot topic checklist than situations generated by actual characters.

    Truth be told, this show is terrible.
