Because conversations never stop, sometimes one gets more than just a haircut while visiting a barbershop. "The Shop," co-executive produced by NBA superstar LeBron James, brings to light what happens "in a real barbershop, like the ones where I grew up," James says. The groundbreaking, unscripted series presents an unprecedented barbershop experience, which for many provides a sanctuary for spirited, free-flowing conversation. Airing periodically throughout the year, episodes highlight barbershops around the country and welcome headlining guests who speak honestly on sports, music, pop culture, and world events, among other culturally relevant topics.

Audience Member lmfao... this show is the worst. seriously... Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Pass, it's horrible. Don't waste your time. Is there a score lower than .5 stars? Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member A very entertaining and interesting show about famous athletes/rappers/actors/etc who sit in a barber shop where they talk about things they would never disclose via social media or in interviews. It's great to get this behind the scenes look into the minds of some our popular culture stars. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Jimmy Kimmel explicitly admits to his bias on his late night show and justifies it by essentially saying "this is the new normal, deal with it." Despite the odds, everyone on the show (I only watched the 3rd episode) is financially successful. The theme of the episode and only message that was being communicated was "whites are oppressing blacks." Regardless of the validity of this statement, this mindset won't help advance the black community. Rather, the message should be an ideology of grit, hard work, good morals, etc. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member You will be dumber for watching this garbage. A bunch of rich, spoiled , entitled athletes complaining about being victims. LeBron James just sounds really stupid and uneducated. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews
