Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Each season was as good as the other
Review: In the first season Roger and his sister, Dee, are one dimensional enemies to each other. This is normal for sitcom people to have one dimensional relationships when the sitcom is just starting out. Over the next two seasons they became more friendly to each other and their relationship gets more well rounded. Many side-splitting moments in all three seasons of the show.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Good Ole Days
Review: Watching What's Happenning brings back so many memories of childhood and great times...laughs. I never realized how much of a cutie Dwayne was back in the day!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: What's happening!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Review: I love this show. I cant believe I forgot how funny these characters are. I wish the show was in syndication. Raj and his dancing and the way he mumbles things when he is upset is too funny. Dee is always cracking on somebody and Rerun is the true king of poplock. He was the trendsetter that started it all, before Michael, Ginuwine, Usher etc. The funniest thing was how Raj would still get the belt at 17 and they made it funny not embarrassing. In my opinion, What's Happening is far more funnier than Good Times. This shows people of color in a good and upbeat situation that is not always about being dirt poor and sad.

Summary: A Childhood Favorite Revisited!
Review: I was 11 years old when this show aired on TV back in 1976 and it was one of my favorite shows and I have good memories of watching this show with my friends and how we would talk about what we liked about the show and who are favorite characters were, etc. Like other reviewers my favorite character was Dee she was my favorite character because Danielle Spenser the actress who played her was around the same age as me only a few months older and besides that she was just so darn hilarious with her snappy comments even though she was always getting herself into trouble with her mouth and her snooping. Does anyone remember the episode where she got into trouble with her Mama beause she broke into somebody's diary or secret momento box but she got caught because the knife she used to pick the lock had peanut butter on it and she left behind the evidence? (A running gag on the show was how Dee was always sticking a butter knife in the peanut butter and eating the peanut butter on the knife which grossed everyone out.). One of my other favorite characters was Duane played by Heywood Nelson and I remember having a big crush on Heywood Nelson and just thnkng he was so cute! This DVD is good and the episodes are just as good now as back then and I recommend it to all fans of this show!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: This is Good and Funny!
Review: What's Happening is a good sitcom from the 70s and it has a very good cast, Ernest Thomas as Roger (Raj), Danielle Spencer as Raj's little sister Dee, Mabel King as their mother, Haywood Nelson as Dwayne, Fred Berry as Rerun and Shirley Hemphill as Shirley but I think my favorite character is Dee because she is very funny with her sarcastic humor. They used to show reruns of this show on a local station but they stopped showing them so I'm happy that the first season is on DVD and I highly recommend the DVD set!
