Is that what they mean by "resting bitch face"?

Seriously.

Quote

The show is sharper than its overly expository first moments; once the reason Michael is living with two aging bros is out of the way, it’s his stage to own. Michael is a sharp comic creation, with the vocabulary of a longtime theater devotee but the quailing innocence of a kid who still has a lot to learn. The mix of precociousness and real-kid energy brought to mind Lisa Simpson—with a dose of freewheeling energy that’s perfect for a moment at which out queer kids are more visible than ever. The show’s future is uncertain, but it deserves more time to shine.

Michael is not a "sharp comic creation"; he's the ugly stereotype of a bitchy, bitter queen-to-be. Lisa Simpson is nothing like this caricature.

Aging Bros?????

Has this writer ever seen the show????? Those guys are beautiful.

Not the kid. I get it, he's gay (more like a gay stereotype) kid which is rare on tv, but I would like to see a real kid ---not  a know-it-all, sneering snob who' s says jerky insulting things to adults , with no repercussions. At least not every episode.

Just in case anyone was still wondering, NBC has officially cancelled Champions.

Good riddance. It was awful. The kid was an offensive stereotype of every gay cliche out there. The brothers were mildly amusing, but no one else was in any way funny.

Good luck to her - I can't even imagine how difficult that is for a young person to address.
