Not Quite a Must See, But it Could Be.

Warning: Spoilers
In a world where there too many comedies about families, where we only see them in their homes, the Knights of Prosperity is something completely different and shows lots of potential. The cast of characters are really good. Kevin Michael Richardson, as Rockefeller Butts, steals the first episode with his one liners. But each character seems to have the potential to take over the show. But what makes it a good show is the ridiculous idea that the story is based on. As you can tell by the commercials (and I marked that this may be a spoiler, if you haven't seen the commercials) is to rob Mick Jagger. Now who comes up with an idea like that? A Bunch of down on their luck friends decide to rob Mick Jagger. That alone makes the show funny and far more creative than we are used for a comedy. Plus there is no laugh-track which is standard for most of comedies. You aren't told when to laugh, you laugh on your own. If you are in the mood for a comedy that is different, and if you are willing to give it a couple of episodes to grow on you, then watch Knights of Prosperity.
