Superstore (TV Series) California Part 1 (2020) User Reviews

Season 5 wraps up

[safenoe · 8/10 · 16 December 2023]

Season five ended prematurely because of the pandemic. I'm only now catching up on Superstore, so it's travelling back in time to see what impact the pandemic had on sitcoms and pretty much everything else on television and in the movies and theater and the words. If the pandemic hadn't happened, then California Part 2 would have been the season five finale.

The choice that Amy had to accept the corporate headquarters position was quite moving, as she originally wanted to fight the power, but individually she had years and years of experience that propelled her to apply for the corporate position.

Amy's career jump is simply ridiculous

[interestingstuff · 20 October 2022]

This whole story around Amy's career development is beyond ridiculous. Obviously writers of this show has never worked for a corporate and they have no idea how corporations work.

Basically Amy goes from floor worker to store manager and then she gets promoted to director in corporate office in 2 steps. She basically jumps 6-7 salary grades in one promotion and another 3-4 salary grades in the next promotion. She basically gets 6-7 promotions in 2 steps without any college degree or anything to show for just by taking a 1 day training seminar once. She might as well become the CEO of the corporate and become the president of the US at this level.

Amy has an interview for a corporate job and she tells Dina to make sure no one else knows.

Amy goes to the interview where one Latina points out they are all Latinas judging by appearance. One woman walks out the interview door proving the point and Amy says she could be Greek.

Dina escorts Amy back into the store who wears sunglasses. Jonah finds it weird Amy felt she had to hide it from him.

After Sandra talks about her future wish to adopt a child, Glen pressures her to adopt one of his former foster kids named Tony. Tony is 17 and has a very Taylor Lautner sort of look.

Cheyenne plans her 21st birthday party with Mateo who has ideas too stuffy for her generation.

Tony and Sandra walk out the store together. Tony asks if they can stop at Panda Express and Tony calls her mom.

Amy is taking out chocolate bunnies that had a part bitten off when Jonah approaches her. Amy talks about taking the job and moving to California. She does not have a degree and what is she supposed to do - be the manager here forever? Jonah agrees and decides to go with Amy.
