Tyler Perry’s Sistas | Season 8A Overview: Someone Needs To Put Their Foot On The Gas Pedal!

The video provides a critical review of the first half of Season 8, drawing comparisons to Season 7. The speaker starts by noting that while Season 7 was disappointing, it wasn’t the worst season; however, Season 8 is shaping up to be the worst. The main points of criticism are the slow pacing and the poor characterization of several characters, which has undermined the show’s appeal.

The pacing is a significant issue, with the story taking several episodes to move from one day to the next, making it feel stagnant. The investigation into who stabbed Gary has become unnecessarily drawn out, especially with the plot twist involving him being drugged, which seems to complicate the situation without adding value. The speaker also points out the absurdity of Gary being drugged to create memory loss, given his habits, and questions the decision to include this aspect of the plot.

Another major criticism is the handling of key characters, especially Andy. The speaker is frustrated by how the show has regressed with her character, particularly the scene where Andy, Karen, and Sabrina discuss Gary’s impact on their lives despite his abusive behavior. This portrayal is seen as unrealistic and inconsistent with how someone would typically react to an abusive person in their life. The speaker also criticizes the show for making Andy weaker and more passive over time.

The treatment of Zach’s character is another sore point, with the speaker feeling that his growth has been undone. Zach’s shift back to acting overly dramatic, combined with the push for a Fatima-Karen storyline, has disappointed fans. Despite this, the speaker does find some enjoyment in Fatima’s struggles at work, particularly as she has to confront challenges that her usual “street-smart” approach can’t solve.

The speaker acknowledges that episodes 10 and 11 of Season 8 were better, but still notes that the bar was set quite low for these episodes, as they were not truly stellar. The review concludes with the speaker expressing doubt about the show’s direction and urging the creators to reconsider their approach before moving forward with Season 9. The overall tone suggests that unless significant improvements are made, Season 8 could end up being remembered as the show’s worst season.
