This was my experience. I watched the first 3 episodes and like two more random episodes (I like the neighborhood and usually watch live), but my god is the show terrible, and Damon jr just comes across as an even cornier slightly higher pitched version of Damon sr - and thing is I’ve liked jr in his other shows and movies.
They cancelled the plans for that spinoff and the Equalizer spinoffI like The Neighborhood too, I’ve seen every episode.
That’s a great example of a sitcom that’s doing the old school thing well and being carried by a cast of mostly vets who are just funny and fun to “hang” with once a week.
It’s ending after next season and there’s hopefully gonna be a Marty and Malcolm spinoff. It’s been cast and I think they’ve shot an episode that might air as a Neighborhood ep, but it hasn’t officially been picked up yet.

‘Equalizer,’ ‘The Neighborhood’ Spinoffs Not Moving Forward at CBS
CBS is not moving forward with spinoffs of "The Equalizer" and "The Neighborhood," Variety has confirmed.variety.com
Not gonna lie the first 5-8 episodes were bad and not written well at all. Not sure why they had Damon Jr. acting so corny on this. He was hilarious on New Girl and I know he has the wit just don't know why they made him so silly on this.This was my experience. I watched the first 3 episodes and like two more random episodes (I like the neighborhood and usually watch live), but my god is the show terrible, and Damon jr just comes across as an even cornier slightly higher pitched version of Damon sr - and thing is I’ve liked jr in his other shows and movies.
The ratings for the show were mehhh and it's not enough scripted spots to go around.must have really been bad because CBS usually let there shows run awhile.
Cedric got 8 seasons of "The Neighborhood"
Latifah got 5 seasons of "The Equalizer"
Yeah I checked out myself after 3 episodes and I was someone super excited about the show. I just didn't find it funny at all.The show got much better in later episodes, but by then most had already lost interest. I think it took a while to figure out what it was trying to be. They probably should've given it another 1/2 season order for next year to really see. They've given worse stuff longer.
