the pilot of mr. robinson has a good attitude, decent direction, and shows some motivation for episodes down the line, but it has many problems. you have the generic likable charismatic African American male with a love for music and women. its always been a good character type, but like with the generic sigourney weaver strong and tough attitude female character, its overused, and you can definitely see its overuse in the pilot. it also has some corny parts, that along with trying to rope in what defines kids today, like the music the kids like, and this gives it the feel that you can very often find in those Disney channel sitcom type shows, which most people above the age of 12 can testify too: they are amusing at times but overall usually unbearable to watch mainly because of audience it appeals to with the plots and events in each episode. now take these attributes and combine them with the regular old sitcom comedy we have in those shows we love like in how i met your mother and friends, and there you have mr. robinson.
