Martin: The Complete Fifth Season

The final season!
Martin - The Complete Fifth Season is the final season of this '90s hit show. It's pretty sad this funny sitcom only lasted five little seasons. Tisha Campbell is rarely seen, she had issues with Lawrence and would only finish the finale if Martin agreed to keep his distance from her. This season is bittersweet, they are still some hilarious moments but the cast who had excellent chemistry the first 4 seasons is now gone and you can feel it. I highly recommend purchasing this groundbreaking show, good memories!

So-So Solid Season
This is actually a pretty solid season considering the controversy and the so-called sexual harrassment that Tisha filed, supposedly. I watched that second episode of this season and it didn't look like she had such a problem with it, hair all messed up and whatnot. Besides, she was in more episodes; actually half the season she was in more episodes so I don't know how credible her story is.
This season could've been way worse without her but after all, it is Martin Lawrence's show and he held it up on his own with the supporting cast. Everybody else in the principal cast got more room to breath and shine. It would've been nice to see more of his other characters, although the 2nd time that Sheneneh came up was in my one of my favorite episodes where she tries to sue Tommy as Mark Cooper as her lawyer. David Alan Grier came back. This season went off without a hitch.

i could tell from the first episode that things were different, the energy was...

It's So Haaard, To Say Goodbyyye...
Like a few others have stated before me, I'm only buying this to complete my collection. The sad part is, I've been telling myself 'don't even bother!', but because I love Martin (and all the cast) so much, I have to complete the collection. It saddens me to know that Martin and Gina had issues and ultimately, it destroyed the show. I really wished they could've worked things out but, I understand that people have to do what they feel is best (whether it was Martin or Gina). This season still had some funny episodes though and I'm looking forward to revisiting them. Also, Pam did her best to carry the show from the female perspective, so kudos to her. I believe that's why she's an addition to the cover and not one of Martin's alter ego's. I personally feel they could have put a better picture of her on the cover!!! Martin & Cast, if you're reading this, a comeback would be nice! Hey, Cosby did it...lol. You definately have an audience out there. But if you decide to make a...
