She the People (Netflix) Review :-
Look, Tyler Perry has had a few recent misfires that left a pretty sour taste. But She the People, a comedy about a Black woman breaking into the cutthroat, all-white boys’ club of politics, manages to deliver some genuinely memorable moments. The series follows Antoinette, who achieves her dream by being elected Lieutenant Governor—but that’s only the beginning of her challenging journey ahead.
The series delivers plenty of genuinely funny moments that’ll have you laughing out loud now and then. Antoinette is surrounded by a devoted circle of family and friends who fiercely support her every step of the way. It’s an endearing watch, especially with Terri J. Vaughn’s warm, relatable portrayal of Antoinette—a woman still finding her footing in a new and challenging role. As you get to know these characters early on, the show easily puts a smile on your face.
That said, in classic Tyler Perry style, the show rarely takes a breath from its relentless, over-the-top drama. Every situation is dialed up to the extreme, leaving little room for subtlety or nuance. While I appreciated how the plot keeps the characters constantly on their toes, the constant chaos can become overwhelming. The white governor’s blatant racism—and that of his predecessors—is clear, but the heavy-handed symbolism, like the ever-present Confederate flags, leaves no space for complexity or reflection. It’s intense to the point that it sometimes feels hard to catch your breath.
I also felt the series glosses over many serious issues without really confronting them in a meaningful way. You can’t just laugh off bigotry and racism, no matter how inexperienced you are in your role. That said, these moments do create room for Antoinette’s growth, which is a plus—she’s the only character who truly develops. Unfortunately, everyone else around her feels like a caricature, reduced to little more than shouting for comedic effect. I never quite understood the obsession with making characters scream as a way to get laughs—it just doesn’t land as genuinely funny for me.
She the People (Netflix) Trailor :-
The issue, however, is that these characters seem to exist solely to support Antoinette’s journey—there’s little depth or individuality beyond that. They all feel like one-dimensional personalities with a single purpose. It would have been much more engaging to truly get to know them and watch their own growth alongside the protagonist’s, but unfortunately, that’s not the case. And honestly, it’s a bit frustrating when you end up loving a pot-smoking grandmother who barely gets any real development.
Final Thought
She the People is entertaining in parts and definitely an improvement over Tyler Perry’s recent work. It’s not without its flaws, but it has some memorable moments. Watch it for Terri J. Vaughn—she absolutely shines and doesn’t disappoint!
“She the People” is now streaming on Netflix.
