That is the question the main character Dean Williams (Elisha Williams) shouts out in church at Sunday mass much to the dismay of his parents. Little do they know that their young son Dean just got his heart broken by witnessing his two best friends kissing in the pilot episode. A-List actor Don Cheadle narrates each episode through the eyes of the series young star Dean Williams.
For those negative IMDB reviewers who just couldn't wait to knock the series on the first day the series was aired, you better be prepared to eat your words as I see a very, very bright future for this re-boot 1960's TV series as seen through the eyes of the narrator Don Cheadle, an African American who lives with his middle class family in a middle class neighborhood.
This families stories, episode after episode, will gradually reflect back on any middle aged viewers who also lived through this period (as I did) whether you are black, brown, white or yellow skinned.
As the late great John Lennon wrote, "all we are saying is give peace a chance". All I am saying, is give this 1960's re-boot TV series as seen through the eyes of a middle class African American family a chance too!
I give the series an 8 out of 10 IMDB rating. Just one last comment, I love Dean's bicycle with the high handle bars and banana seat. Now those were the "Wonder Years".
