'Assisted Living' Episode 5: Fans complain 'we STILL on the same day' and it's all because of cast's clothes

'I bet Tyler Perry somewhere bragging that he shot 2000 episodes in 3 days. Trust me Mr Perry, we can tell', said one viewer

Another episode of Tyler Perry's 'Assisted Living' has wrapped and nothing seems to be pleasing critics, from complaints about the lack of Mr Brown and Cora — their main attraction of the show — to calling out the poor writing, done and dusted comedy, and more. as a fan tweeted, "Black Twitter be tearing this show apart."

For others, it has been all about cracking hilarious jokes on the money the soap opera maestro is saving by having five straight episodes stretched across three weeks with the characters not changing their clothes even once. The show might not be hilarious, but the social media commentary sure is!This week it was Episode 5 and 6 of the sitcom where we find Jeremy and Leah's daughter Sandra expressing rebellion against their plans of moving to Georgia permanently.

And while Phillip  was mature about it, Sandra quite isn't. It spurred a great deal of 'Whose kids are these?' reactions from viewers too, but they were too focused on the lack of wardrobe change to dissect the plot further. Episode 6 kicked off with mentions of Deacon Brown, aka the famous Mr. Brown whose arrival has been awaited for a long, long time now. It gave fans some hope that maybe things are about to get better, but the clothes were too much to ignore for most. 

It started with fans noticing "So for how many episodes will they be standing in this living room with the same clothes on?" A user shared, "Wayment!!! I haven’t watched this show since the 1st week and they STILL got on the same clothes!!! And the kids STILL don’t know they moving here!! And the kids STILL being disrespectful and haven’t gotten snatched!! So basically we STILL on the same day #AssistedLivingBET"

Soon another tweeted: "Wayment!!! I haven’t watched this show since the 1st week and they STILL got on the same clothes!!! And the kids STILL don’t know they moving here!! And the kids STILL being disrespectful and haven’t gotten snatched!! So basically we STILL on the same day."

Another quipped: "This is why TP is a billionaire. Look at the money saved on hair and wardrobe. These actors have worn the same outfit for 6 episodes." This wasn't the only Tyler Perry saved money filming this joke on social media. Others quipped, "I bet Tyler Perry somewhere bragging that he shot 2000 episodes in 3 days. Trust me Mr. Perry, we can tell."

Some complaints ran long and hard. A fan wrote: "Why are we on Episode 6 and it’s the same day, same setting, same conversation, same clothes, etc.. I really hope this dragging of the episode gets fixed ASAP."
