Info

Half & Half is an American sitcom that aired on UPN from September 23, 2002, to May 15, 2006. The show focuses on the lives of two paternal half-sisters in their twenties who were estranged throughout their childhood, and are finally developing a close relationship. The series is set in San Francisco. It was the second-most-watched show on UPN's Monday night line-up and fourth overall on the network. The show was on The CW's first draft line-up in March 2006, but due to several circumstances—including The CW's contractual obligation to pick up Reba, the uncancelling of All of Us, and the pick-up of the Girlfriends spin-off The Game—Half & Half was left off the final Fall 2006 schedule and ended production. The series has aired in reruns on Global TV in Canada, Trouble in the UK and in local syndication in the United States. It also airs in the United States on TV One.

Half & Half Audience Reviews

Hottoceame The Age of Commercialism
Raetsonwe Redundant and unnecessary.
PodBill Just what I expected
Kayden This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama
rick_suber Good show. Funny. Not full of buffoonery and overall, shows black folks in a positive light. I think it should still be on TV (with new episodes) and its a shame it does not come on anymore. Unfortunately, I do not like the fact that the only black male on the cast is the "typical" player-type. And the sister (Mona?) with the curly hair was dating a white guy (at least the episodes that I saw). Interracial relationships are cool, but the disproportionate portrayal of black males as either buffoons or players is crazy. So all in all, good show. Hopefully we can have more like it, with more positive black males casted.
Sideem Half & Half has definitely improved over the first season. It's a worthy show that never fails to bring out the funny. Rachel True is an excellent actress and next to Valarie Pettiford is one of my favorites on the show. I for one happen to like her 'eclectic' look. Remember the phrase...'We are not a monolith'. In other words, not every black person thinks and acts the same. If we all did that, life would be boring and I suppose some of you wouldn't have anything to b!tch about! I'm very happy it's made it to a second season. They did have a potential 'jump the shark' moment introducing a pregnancy but so far it's been handled very well.I look forward to many more laughs from the entire cast, who clearly have great chemistry together.
kayzee This how stinks. It seems as if it is written by a group of mildly intelligent 15 year olds. The plot devices are tired and the genuine laughs are non existent. Watch girlfriends or Bernie Mac instead. I will admit that the premise is at least somewhat fresh. Oh yeah the acting stinks too. Poor Telma Hopkins.
KaterinaNV When will american sitcoms finally get decent writers or invest a little more talent into their productions? I caught this show purely by accident and thought that the set up was a good one for a comedy and liked both Rachel True and Essence Atkins in it as the two half sisters. What I didn't find as appealing is the fact there are so many opportunities for real comedy here and both girls are so available and open for it, and yet where are the writers? Constantly the laughs are not there because they're not writing them in! It is the most confounding thing and the most irritating to to watch a comedy that has the potential to go places, only to see them go nowhere. Must we wait 10 years each time for the next Cosby Show, Cheers or Friends? Are there really that few writers out there that can actually put pen to paper and make something funny come out of it? I hope for the sake of the show and the cast (who deserve better material) that the producers come to their senses and start whipping the storylines into something a little more witty.
