Much of the show 's appeal is also rooted in the joy of great banter and subverting expectations.. But there's also just a lot of really funny writing.

South Side barrages you with so many jokes, and in so short a time, that after a few minutes of watching, you'll feel drunk.

That experience directly informs "Sherman's Showcase," but it can also be seen in "South Side," whose scenes and episodes don't build (at least not in any intricate or surprising way) but skip along from joke to joke, verbally and visually.

Brought to life by local Chicagoans, both in front of and behind the camera, "South Side" succeeds in what it sets out to do: give viewers a more complete, if humorous depiction of life on Chicago's south side.

It's that kind of sharp, careful, hyper-local writing that makes South Side a joy.

"South Side" is a fearless, unapologetic, equal opportunity offender - sometimes going to near absurdist lengths in shining a spotlight on racial and cultural and societal issues, but never in mean-spirited fashion.

South Side isn't here to play in Atlanta's haunting surrealism or find pathos with its imperfect families, and that's just fine. It's wild, weird, and 100% worth visiting on its own merits.

The end result is a serviceable comedy that humanizes a portion of Chicago that is often either missing, maligned or misrepresented in mainstream media.
