Who knew Sinbad had so many personal issues? Between his divorce, owing $2.5 million in back taxes, Hollywood offers drying up left and right, he’s been through a lot.
But in his new reality show, “Sinbad: It’s Just Family,” on WEtv, he’s all smiles and optimistic. “This is my second chance in life,” he asserts during the opening.
The first episode centers around Sinbad moving in with his former ex-wife/current wife, living with her and their two adult kids, Paige (25) and Royce (22). Royce is living the life in his mom’s house, waking up every morning to pancakes and fresh laundry. Paige on the hand seems ready to move on. Sounds like an intriguing premise, right?
We’ve all liked Sinbad, with his family-friendly comedy shows and hilarious insights on proper parenting. But in watching the first episode, it just seems like he’s trying too hard here, like he doesn’t trust the editors of the show to piece together something decent so he’s “overacting” to make it funny.
(Also, is it just me or does Paige look like NeNe? Between the haircut and the glasses…definitely looking like one of ATL’s most visible residents.)
His wife (who he divorced in 1996 and remarried in 2002) seems like she’s a really nice person. (I’m trying to figure out why they’re just now moving in together.) Very much laidback in contrast to Sinbad’s over the top personality.
I’m trying to figure out what comes next for them in future episodes. Whereas there is a clear storyline in the Braxton Family Values show (will they all reach their dreams of stardom/what’s next for Toni Braxton), I’m not sure where else there is to go with this show. Everyone just moved in, so they’re stuck under one roof. What’s next – Sinbad creating a “man cave”? I’m a little bored.

Reality Geek says
OK, so what was the point of “Seinfeld?” Nothing, right? But it lasted how many years????!! And I have always enjoyed Sinbad who, by the way, is the bridge between the races in my opinion. His comedy brings joy, humor and common sense to a world gone wild! I wondered about his owing the IRS millions, but what celeb doesn’t nowadays? They ALL live beyond their means. And why is he just now moving into his wife’s house? My question, also. And I DO agree with you totally ~ Paige DOES look like NeNe Leakes and that’s just scarey!!! But, am I the only one in the world that actually loved his show and adored his family? It’s a sad world if that’s true! And the Braxton’s new show, well let me describe it in one word…..Insanity!!!! Or Hormones!!!! Or Egotistical!!!! It was OK, I suppose, but I needed a Valium after watching it!
Tara Pringle Jefferson says
I like the idea of the show, and I do adore Sinbad. But I just felt like it was a bit over the top, but still boring. I will give it another shot next week…
Cec1957 says
I think it’s a very good show. I see your credentials, but I disagree with your opinion. Sinbad has always acted like he does in his show. Where have you been? Have your ever seen him act any other way?
Tara Pringle Jefferson says
Sinbad has always acted like that but I assumed that he would show what he’s like “off camera” or off the stage. But it just seems like he wants it to be sitcom and it feels forced because it’s like he’s the only one acting. His wife is so calm and laid back compared to him, which really makes it obvious.
I will amend my previous post and say that I caught a bit of another episode (the money one) and it wasn’t too bad. Will I keep watching? I don’t know.
Laura72142 says
I like the show also. Glad to see a clean reality show.I actually laugh at him still. Hope he stays on but of course if they say the show is boring, it will be cancelled. People love trashy shows .
Encor13 says
I loved the show. It is 100 times better than Braxton family values, which plays over and over and over. Same ole stuff, rich spoiled rotten bratty, selfish sisters all trying to outdo the others and all jealous of Toni. They dis their own mother. They all are smart mouthed and full of attitude. One is married to Toni’s producer and they dont even act like they like each other.
Sinbads show is funny and realistic. His family all truly love each other and are open and honest and outspoken. We as ordinary people and families relate to them alot more. Reality tv should relate to “real ordinary people” we cannot relate to Braxton lifestyle, and I for one dont want to ever live that kind of life.
Lmadnow says
OMG! Braxton Family Values runs circles around Sinbad’s show. I do love Sinbad; but the show is boring and seems forced.

oh yes!!!! sinbad is so cool and his family too…….i could watch episode after episode all day long, love this reality show, sinbad is great!!!! this better last a long time, his family and him are so down to earth……i wish he was a friend of mine
Kaytlingladys says
I really love this show. Every Tuesday night, I look forward to watching Sinbad’s show. It was funny and hilarious. This show was just what I needed.As for Tara Pringle Jefferson, I do not know where your hostility is coming from with black reality shows. I pray that you do not watch the Kardashian’s reality show. This show is about rich white kids. But their show has been going strong for years. Well answer that question do you watch their show or critique their show? Or is it just the black reality shows that you seem to have a problem with?
Erma says
I agree whats wrong with Sinbad show nothing , their are so many white show on TV why can’t the blacks have someone who makes you laugh.It’s clean and what is wrong with his wife being laid back two people alike to me would be boring.I hope they bring the show back.
Williem25 says
You and me both!
yolanda says
I love the Sinbad show!! Sinbad is funny his family is adorable, i wish they would bring the show back. So much trash on TV,the( SINBAD)family is awesome.
dee says
ok I am not sure yet, I am going to watch both Braxtons and Sinbad show again…but it was a bit overacting going on with Sinbad and the daughter….the Braxtons um, I really just don’t know with that honestly….
Lamar Tyler says
I think that was my biggest thing- the acting and forced comedy. I know all reality shows are scripted but I can’t stomach the one’s that don’t even seem kinda real.
Mamastopo1 says
what are you talking about, Sinbad show is real, that is who he is, ive seen him many times in many venues and that’s who he is… It seems that what you are looking for is Ghetto- ism, this man doesnt force his comedy… Thats who he is totally….. I’m proud of him , and pray that GOD continue to bless him and his family… He’s doing what he loves and supporting himself at the same time…
SINBAD YOU ROCK !
Ctina323 says
I do not like the Braxtons Tamar is a trip she not even a diva she aint on the map. Sinbad I love but his family does not respect him his stuff or his space,the son was getting ready to sell his guitar…..can u get with that on ebay and said he was a bout to make some money????what swll you own guitar…sheeeeesh
mark says
sinbad is not over reacting…..are you nuts? are you watching the show or just sleeping in front of your tv? sinbad is so very real, wake up please!!
Vi says
Thought the show was very entertaining – Sinbad is funny – just that simple. Everyone from boring to hilarious loves funny people. Couldn’t stop watching it – each family member interested me, making me want more. Even checked my series manager to make sure future episodes would not get missed. Most of the world loves Sinbad – and these last years we have missed him. So bring it on Sinbad!
Cece says
I liked the show. It seemed a little forced in the beginning but it settled down and started to find it’s own groove. But what doesn’t start out that way. It seems that if something is not over the top with selfishness and petty behavior it’s “boring” or uninteresting. What ever you may think of the show there is a genuine love between that family that I thought was refeshing for a change. I realize that bad behavior and refusing to be responsible for your actions is all the rage but every now and them seeing a value system in place that doesn’t victimize others in some way reminds us that there is a genuine humanity that we all possess.
Yana says
Reality shows represent neediness, desperation and attention whoring at it’s finest. The human ego never ceases to amaze me! I never realized how hard it is for a person who was once a star to accept that they aren’t anymore. For me, Sinbad hasn’t been relevant since his days on Star Search and him doing this show really does scream of a last ditch effort to resist from fading to black.
Tamarind says
Happy for Sinbad. Nice family. Show was a little boring. Not sure I will remember to tune in next time. This episode is not one that you could watch over and over like the other reality shows. A little predictable and boring.
GeeGee4 says
Sometimes, I think (just my opinion) that we as a society have gotten sooo use to these drama shows that when something mild mannered comes on it doesn’t interest us. I am the type to watch Sinbad’s show over the Braxton’s due to it not being so drama. Plus, it is about rebuilding his life, career, marriage, family not who don’t have what and what u are willing to do to get famous… Give me slow and easy, I am looking forward to Sinbad’s next show
Aja says
I agree with Lamar. For me, its not the lack of over the top drama, it’s the fact that the show just seems scripted and fake. I know that reality shows are all scripted to some degree, but if I watch the show and just feel like it seems like acting the whole time I get annoyed. Either I want to watch a reality show or I want to watch a sitcom, and I don’t want to watch a sitcom starring the non-actors in Sinbad’s family.
Gina says
I feel the same way as Aja. I love Sinbad, but the show was so slow and at times annoying.
NTruble62 says
At first the show dragged on a bit but them I started SCREEAMING!It’s reminds me of my life with my blended family. When I saw all of those boxes in the house and yard I started screaming to the wife,”Don’t let him bring in one box! They will be there 5 years later”! Or is that my own personal dilemma?..lol I thought that the story was cute and it can only get better. I like Sinbad
Now the Braxtons…OMG, who gave THOSE clowns a show. Toni Braxton is the ‘star’ of the family and the rest of them are there because um…what? That Tamar has a bad attitude and is there because of ‘what’ exactly? The rest of them are pretty much non-discript. Everyone wants to be a star. I’m Calling Mayor Reed and tell him to change Atlanta’s tag line to “Welcome to Atlanta, PULEEZE DO NOT bring your family here if they are LOOZERS! We have enough! ” Cancel that show QUICKLY!

The show was wonderful!! I hope he gets a regular long-term series. Braxton’s show is garbage.

Danielle Royster says
I liked the show and you can tell that Sinbad really values his family. The funniest scene was when Paige had her boyfriend over and she was trying to get away from everyone and Royce came out of nowhere and was running on the treadmill. I can’t wait to watch future episodes and I want to make sure that my friends watch it because their into reality shows as well. Thankfully, there is the DISH Remote Access app and I can watch live and pre-recorded shows no matter where I’m at or what I’m doing with the help of my Sling Adapter. The app is free to download and can be found in the App Store and Android Market. If I ever need convenience, I know that DISH can provide that for me!

more black on black crime..sinbad show is great copared to all those other clown shows
DJohnson says
Love the show, love Sinbad. Everytime I watch, I’m laughing till I have tears. Whole family is great.
Kkltth2 says
I love the show. I love Sinbad and always have. I crack up laughing both episodes. His daughter DOES NOT look like NeNe Leakes! Paige is a cute girl, is she not allowed to have her look without having to look like someone else! Come on people.
Tara Pringle Jefferson says
Nobody said Paige was ugly. No one said NeNe was ugly. I think they’re both cute. But with the haircut and the oversized glasses she had on in episode one…there was a strong resemblance to me. *shrugs*

Positive black show supporter says
WOW!!.. Sinbad was unconsciously Hilarious. OVER THE TOP COMEDY…?????? Well he is a comedian. What do you expect? I found his show to actually be the closest thing to reality on TV. His wife and kids expressions seem to be real reactions to Sinbad’s non-stop comedy, as though he is always like this, not the reactions as though he overacting for the camera. I find it weird that we question “where is the show going”… Its a realty show. Bad reality shows have plots. The concept of a reality show is to see what will happen in their normal lives. (Or at least give the impression).. Sinbad and his Wife were having normal husband/Wife issues and as a comedian, all of Sinbad’s responses were comical. In fact you can almost get a glimpse of the family issues they have, probably because he is on joke time a lot. Not only does Sinbad show seem extremely realistic but I personally know couples who act as he did. The only contrast of the show is the contrast between Sinbad and his wife. not often to you see such broad contrast in characters between two ppl. Sure as a reality show there is some plotting and designed editing, but I believe Sinbad is just going and the editing is at the minimal, as to a show like Toni Braxton’s has way more fluff… Which by the way, I get confused often wondering which one is Toni. All those women look alike. And for the record Sinbad daughter looks nothing like Nene. Stop stereotyping golden complexion, tall, semi-thick women with short hair as look-alikes… LOL
Sweetnesstp3 says
i think its a great show. more like a comedy than a reality show. kudos to sinbad for trying to make it work again. we all make bad choices in life and hes making it right. im glad to see a positive black family on tv who is very loving and supportive of each other for a change. we need to see more of that on tv and real life. i look forward to watching every tue..
Tara Pringle Jefferson says
@Sweetness – I think you’re right. I think the fact that it was touted as a reality show threw me off and they didn’t give me what I expected. With Sinbad’s show, it felt like a twist on the Bernie Mac show or even the Family Crews with the dad in the armchair talking loud about the antics of their family. I’ve watched another episode of Sinbad’s show, but I haven’t watched the Braxtons since episode two. I’m trying to do my part to support a positive black family show, but if it’s boring or seems over the top to me, I’m going to call it out. I’ll give Sinbad some credit – he might have made some mistakes with his finances and his career, but he has a wonderful family 🙂
jj says
So happy to see Sinbad making his way back! He is positive and we need more of that on TV. I love his wife and kids. He discusses real situations and I can relate as a parent. As for the Braxtons…. not working. Their issues should remain private and not be revealed on television.
easygoing says
I love sinbad and his family—it’s so refreshing to see their interactions…..hope it never ends.
Ti says
I actually agree with the writer’s original comment. In watching the first episode, it was painfully obvious that this was a sitcom trying to be a reality show, with the theme being everyone moving back in together. However, this didn’t really work since it seemed as though Paige didn’t really have a reason to move back in other than to take part in the show (unless I missed it). Also, I know there has to be some sort of emotional moment in every reality show in order to make it more relatable, but it struck me as odd that she was complaining about no longer having a second home when the house they live in is quite nice. I understand that the family may have had a little more before, but they still have a lot now, especially in comparison to some other families.
This is not meant to be a criticism of Sinbad or his family. I am only two or three years older than his daughter, and I definitely remember watching his shows on television with my parents. His brand of comedy is almost obsolete in today’s version of “entertainment”. His family life is also very refreshing. It seems as though his wife is very loving and down-to-earth, and has a sense of self-worth and purpose independent of him. Their children are also very respectful and well-adjusted, and it’s nice to see that they are not brats who think they have a right to curse their parents while living under their roof. However, a reality show has to have a little more than everyday family room discussions and laughs around the dinner table. Otherwise, we could all have one.
Tara Pringle Jefferson says
@Ti – I think you nailed it. 🙂
Tastee84 says
First off, let’s get this straight! Sinbad’s wife looks like a beautiful version of NeNe Leeks, not “like” NeNe!! Dang u tryin to insult the lady!! I don’t know y everyone is so in awe of a loud-mouthed, ignorant (even tho she’s smart), ghetto acting chick like her, she is too old to act the way she does. Anyway, I’m hoping the show does well, I haven’t even watched it but for Sinbad’s sake I really hope that it does, but more so, I hope he really grows from this too. Too many reality shows don’t serve a greater purpose other than providing idiocy and trashy “entertainment”.
Tara Pringle Jefferson says
@Tastee – I said Paige’s daughter was giving me Nene vibes from her short haircut and oversized glasses from episode one. Nowhere in there did I say I was a fan of Nene, nor did I say Nene was ugly. Stop putting words in my mouth. LOL
nygirl123 says
I always liked him as a performer, but he rubbed me the wrong way on this show. I will not watch it again. My thoughts: “Pay your damn taxes like the rest of us have to!” No sympathy.
TiredOfMessOnTV says
I love this show! I guess boring to some is entertainment to others! They are a beautiful black family and I wish them every success. Sadly when you do a search on “Sinbad’s new show”, this is the first post that appears. On Black And Married With Kids of all things. :/
Hiring2000 says
I agree. There is not much going on in this show. I feel the show is scripted and sinbad is trying so hard to be funny. A comeback for him is highly unlikely.
Ann Arbor Mi says
Although I love Sinbad and I’m happy he’s doing something, the show sucks very much. I can tell its scripted. His daughter looks like a skinny Ne Ne big time! I’m trying to give the show another shot but it looks grim. He has a lovly family and his wife is so laid back, which balance their relationship out and its very obvious it works for them.
Nice_Show says
Wow..I like the show. They seem like decent people who are working through problems and difficulties like the rest of us…not to mention it is family friendly..all about family.
Lindamayme says
Linda Lopez
I love the show, I like Sinbad and I think he should be VERY proud of his family. After the first episode I googled Sinbad, I didn’t know about his financial problems. Sinbad and his wife seem to have done a great job raising their children, it is clear to see the love and respect they have for each other. I will continue to watch every week. I wish them all the success that good hard working, loving, kind people deserve and happiness for all their lives. This show makes me happy, puts a smile on my face and I am telling everyone I know to watch. I don’t get agree with you I just see Sinbad being Sinbad, his wife is his perfect partner and his kids are good people.
Badu12 says
BOOring! OMG This show is so boring. There is no point. If I want to see upper midle class Black folks eat breakfat, use the computer play with a dog and go to bed, I’ll quit and stay home and just watch my own family walk around. It doesn’t have to be Ghetto (.com), but what a waste of an hour. I can’t watch it anymore. Hope he makes enough money to pay his taxes, then he can just go settle into his boring life and make room for another wedding show or something.
Lady T says
Love the show!
Summer Bilson says
Why do we always have to be so negative? Who cares? It’s a funny show, and it’s nice to see a black family on TV that’s just doing what a lot of families have to do – try to survive the nonsense that life throws at you. I like that the show is just a fun show, not absurd dramas and such that are tiring, it’s good to just watch people trying to go about their business.
It seems that people complain either way. It’s a nice show with no vulgarity, no naked whores, and it’s good at the very least as just a time drain.
Not everything has to be criticized to death. Hating is Perez’ business. Sometimes, just let an okay thing be okay.
Jenniferishiekwene says
I agree the show is too forced Sinbad comes across as fake too me he’s trying too hard I dont want to see a FAKE PERSON AND HE NOT FUNNY AT ALL. I want to support the brotha but he need to keep it real I want to see the real Sinbad not these preplaned situations. I would alos like too here why he stoped doing the Concerts in Aruba they were off the hook and yes his daughter Paige does look like “Yikes Ne Ne Leaks.
Earl Barber says
The show is great. Sinbad and his son should do a movie. I never laughed at any other reality show. They were all about drama. You can’t help but laugh. Sinbad is a good break from REALITY.
Love says
I love the Sinbad show! Frankly, I am tired of the black woman- cheating man-I need a man- a lot of cussing drama queens on these reality shows. For once, their is an African American show that all family members can watch. Good, clean, family entertainment! I love the Sinbad show!
lovnU says
Why does human nature gravitate to the most negative programs that are placed on television by the media. “It’s all about ratings.” Our dysfunctional society has already gotten that part down. What we need is to see how to live more positive lifestyles with our families which is exhibited in the covert way of entertainment when we choose to watch Sinbad”s reality show. “Thank God” for family-friendly programing once again! No sex, drugs, alcohol and cussing, yelling, fighting, disrespect and just out and out bad manners. Other post are examples of exactly what speak. Very few people seem to enjoy clean-living. It’s so refreshing not to be contaminated once a week for one hour and be able to sit down with family and watch something decent! Pleazeeeeeeeee don’t leave me!!! lol
Joe says
Thank you so much for your post. I am a father of 4 (2 boys-2 girls) and this happens to be the ONLY REALTY TV SHOW that I could trust to provide entertainment to my family.
DFP says
The light hearted comedic / positive elements of this Black family ‘s Reality Show are REFRESHING compared to OBVIOUSLY CONTRIVED neck working drivel on the Braxtons.. I’ll be tuning in and telling others.
Everette Birch says
I LOVE SINBAD’S REALITY SHOW!! I must admit, it was difficult following the writer of this article . . in the fourth paragraph, she writes about Sinbad being afraid of the editors – someon should have edited her grammer mistakes before she posted this article!!!

commexpert10 says
I was thinking the same thing. I don’t see it anywhere on WE. I see on the Guide there are multiple episodes of the Braxtons. And I definitely disagree with Tara Jefferson. It is almost impossible to get a positive Black family on TV these days (who are attractive, smart, not loud and obnoxious). I think I have seen all of the episodes thus far and when I saw the first episode I told my husband this show is funny and positive but will probably not last because unfortunately there are not enough people in the world who want to see a positive show (especially a positive Black couple/family show). I’m hoping to be proven wrong.

Beautiforashes says
I noticed that Sinbad’s time slot has been replaced with the Braxton’s show too. I thought that I would find an explanation on google and that’s how I found this article. Honestly, as much as I enjoy Sinbad, I hated his reality show. I didn’t rush for the remote as much as I wanted to because I wanted to do my deed to give him ratings, but it really was boring to watch. What really took the cake for me was when he had Willie from BET’s College Hill “playing” an annoying fan who won a dinner with him. That whole scene was some of the worse acting I’ve ever seen in my life. Sinbad had his moments of overacting and boy can he nag and complain! All of that isn’t entertaining. I wanna be entertained not nagged to. I was so embarassed for Sinbad. It was just so awfully scripted. I was rooting for him because you can tell that he’s a good person but the show sucked. Point blank.

Just found out he had a show, I hope it’s not over yet! I just love it so far. I love Sinbad and probably would love anything he did! He is just funny as hell . Sinbad proves that you don’t have to have a foul mouth to be funny.
Cavequeendiva says
Just saw Sinbad on a black talk show this a.m.. Caught it by accident so I don’t really know who the host is, but she is a very pretty black woman. I am a white, middle aged (58) mother and wife. I have always loved Sinbad’s style and humor. I wish him and his family only the best. Now that I know about his reality show, I hope to catch it on TV. My kids enjoyed years of humor and fun watching him perform and I feel hopeful about his return to TV. All good wishes, Sinbad!
LiveLovely says
I think the show is hilarious. It reminds me of my relationship when its good and bad. Its a real family. ..their a unit even through all the craziness. The mother is beautiful inside and out, the daughter is actually a talented singer, and the son is smart and is easy on the eyes. Every family member is comical and the only one that does it for a career is Sinbad. Surprisingly, I think he is even funnier now than before!
