The series follows the story of Craig, the lead singer and keyboard player for funk Nasty Delicious. It seems that this person is still living a miserable life as he tries to pay the bills, thus working as an alternative music teacher in high school. Now, this distinguished singer faces the teacher's policies and the temptations of single mothers here.
Craig Robinson is a talented musician who once starred in a classic series and has now wandered into a bad sitcom. The worse news -- his name is on it.
I thought I could watch anything Craig Robinson put out there, but his new NBC series Mr. Robinson is another example of major comedic talent being watered down by lazy joke writing for an identity-free sitcom.
For every charming and genuinely funny moment - and there is a fair amount - there is a lazy sitcom trope that stunts Mr. Robinson and depletes it of its promise.
