Moesha was an American sitcom series that aired on the UPN network from January 23, 1996 to May 14, 2001. The series stars R&B singer Brandy Norwood as Moesha Mitchell, a high school student living with her family in the Leimert Park neighborhood of South Central Los Angeles. It was originally ordered as a pilot for the CBS network's 1995-1996 television season, who rejected. It was then picked up by UPN, who aired it as a mid-season replacement. It went on to become the biggest success for the nascent network and one of the greatest hits over the course of the network's entire run.

"It's a good show overall, the quality dipped a bit after season 4 though."

Jonathan Kent

"Classic show, funny, black. But Frank is unbearable"

"I gave it a thumbs up because overall it was a solid show. But the way the show ended and Mo turning into an afterthought in her own show was questionable "

"I don't know why the show gets the disrespect it does (I think it's just people who don't like Brandy honestly), because yea Moesha had problematic views & ways but if you look hard enough so did all of us who were teenagers. The main thing that makes Moesha a phenomenal teen show is the fact that it was about black culture, black business, & black neighborhoods. And to me that's more important than the cons. I wish that they didn't make Kim dumber (which was continued on The Parkers) and that they didn't make RayJ a main character, to me those things hurt the integrity of the show & took away the quality. Kim in the early seasons was perfect, she was D-C average but she was loud & hood, not a kindergartener in a teenagers body. And Ray J already had a character on this show with multiple appearances years before "Dorian" was added & that character was better & funnier than Dorian."

"Its classic but the show shoots itself in the foot in the later seasons. You can tell once Moesha started growing up and going to college they didn't know what to do with it"
