S1E1: The Sinbad Show


Listen Later

The Sinbad Show is a sitcom that aired on FOX from 1993 to 1994, during the height of the titular comedian’s stand-up fame. The series centers on David Bryan (Sinbad), a carefree bachelor who must trade his lifestyle for the responsibilities of fatherhood after he adopts two orphaned siblings. The show’s DNA was built on Sinbad’s high-energy storytelling to navigate the hurdles of modern parenting and urban single-parent dynamics.

Despite Sinbad's massive popularity and a time slot following The Simpsons, The Sinbad Show struggled to find a consistent tone, with critics noting that the "cute kid" tropes often clashed with the star's boisterous comedic persona. The series was ultimately canceled after just one season as part of a controversial programming shift at FOX. Is this show going to be a forgotten gem or is it just a sin how bad it is? Listen as they deep dive the show's pilot episode and find out.

Starring: Sinbad, T.K. Carter, Erin Davis, Willie Norwood (Ray J), Lorraine Toussaint, & Salma Hayek
