TV show description:
A family sitcom loosely inspired by the life of star and co-creator, Marlon Wayans, the Marlon TV show centers on Marlon Wayne (Wayans). He and ex-wife Ashley (Atkins) are the parents of a teenaged daughter, Marley (Taylor) and a younger son, Zack (O’Neil).
Although Marlon is devoted to his kids, he’s pretty much an overgrown kid, himself. He is prone to whimsy, and his parental advice leaves much to be desired. Thanks to his colorful personality, Marlon has become something of an internet superstar.
Ashley, meanwhile, is extremely level-headed. Still, she largely tolerates her ex-husband’s antics, much to the chagrin of her friend, Yvette (Webb).
Marlon has been letting his academically-minded friend, Stevie (Riddle), crash on his couch for a couple of weeks — for the past couple of years. Although the guys seem to be polar opposites, they still come through for each other.
Sometimes, Marlon and Ashley have trouble letting go of the past, but they’re committed to remaining happily divorced.
Series Finale:
Episode #20 — Funeral Party
Marlon decides to throw himself a funeral party after attending his barber’s funeral; everyone speaks at Marlon’s party, talking about the insensitive jokes he made at their expense; Marlon worries that he is too harsh on everyone.
First aired: July 12, 2018.
What do you think? Do you like the Marlon TV series? Should this TV show have been cancelled or renewed for a third season on NBC?
I LOVED THIS SHOW. PLEASE BRING ON SEASON 2
please renew
Marlon show is hilarious! Please renew!
I love this show!!! SEASON 2 PLEASE!!!
I love this show! Please renew for a second season!
I honestly wasn’t terribly excited about this show despite being a fan of the Wayans family, but after seeing the negative reviews I decided to check it out for myself anyway. After 3 episodes in, I gotta say that I really like it. I’m not one of those people who has to cuss out critics just because they don’t like a show or movie that I like. If they don’t, they don’t. So what? Give them the freedom to have a different opinion. That being said, everything doesn’t need to be some “boundary-pushing, edgy, groundbreaking for the landscape of television”… Read more »
LOVE THIS SHOW!!!! It is hilarious. PVR It so we won’t miss an episode. Please renew for another season.
Please CANCEL this waist if time show. I just spent the worst half hour if the month watching this nonsense . This is a deplorable, NOT FUNNY show trying to push any button they could find to make a joke. NOT FUNNY, NOT FUNNY every one. Horrible show!!!
Please dont cancel the show i love marlon i want to see a season 2 and so on i thank he is funny if you like the wayans bros then you will like this show
This show is my new go to sitcom. I laughed so hard. PLEASE PLEASE DO NOT CANCEL this. It is a hit in my household. We are HUGE sitcom watchers.
The show is a bunch of nonsense pushing any buttons they could find to make you laugh. Not funny and I hope they yank it off the air this week
I love, love, love this show! It is hilarious!
I absolutely love it, and I want to see more
I like Marlon, but I think a different actress would be better suited to play his wife other than Essence Atkins!! She’s not funny at all!!!!
Not a funny show. He’s a baffoon here. Why would his now ex-wife marry him in the 1st place. I’ll give it one more show to make me laugh. Carmichael (another fairly new “black” show was cancelled was 10x better. I laughed a lot.
I enjoyed everything about Marlon show from the very beginning and look forward to the next airing. Very Hilarious!! Quite eye opening!! Thank you for sharing your reflection in this world, your brilliance and your comedic gift.
