This is the best new comedy of the season. Watching the show, you immediately relax because you know you’re in the hands of humor experts — Damon Wayans and Damon Wayans Jr. The father and son make everything effortlessly funny, whether senior is blowing on a hot cup of tea or junior is ill-advisedly putting a shoe-clad foot on the couch. Wayans Sr., who also co-created the series (with Kevin Hench) and sometimes co-writes episodes, stars as a radio host with old-school attitudes about life. Damon Wayans Jr. is his son, who is working a job he doesn’t like while he strives to be a filmmaker. The writing is solid, but it’s the two stars who make every scene sing. “Poppa’s House” is a worthy partner to “The Neighborhood,” which airs right before it on Mondays. I guess now Mondays are Must-See TV.
