AVClub: Black-ish often deserves praise simply for its ability to zag where one might assume it will zig. Because going into “Any Given Saturday,” there’s a sense of dread: Dre going full Dre as a helicopter parent who wants to live vicariously through his baller son. The cringe-worthy moments write themselves, and the Dre-isms plague the brain. But then something else happens. Yes, Dre does go full Dre (making this the second night in a row I’ve reviewed a sitcom where a main character threatens to murder someone) and all of that helicopter parent nonsense; but that’s just a small part of the episode, and that’s really not the point. That’s apparent from the very beginning even, as the episode opens up with an unexpected 30 For 30-style opening and a voice-over from Diane Johnson, of all people.
