An Emotional Season Premiere
AnimatedCritic23 September 2021
I honestly think this is one of the best Goldbergs episodes. It was fun, had solid jokes, and was emotional. The episode does a great job honoring George Segal, with them honoring Pops' final wishes. The last few minutes of the episode was definitely a tear jerker, even causing me to nearly cry. The family saying farewell to Pops in the final scene was in my opinion, the best scene in the showThe only thing holding this episode back from greatness was Murray. He had good motives, and him helping the Goldbergs resolve their grief was a great scene, but he acted like a jerk sometimes during the episode, which I didn't like, but there wasn't to much of that.

Overall, it's a great episode with great emotional beats, and yet a still fun episode.

The Goldbergs' Excellent Adventure

Warning: Spoilers
This is not only the 9th series opener, but also a tribute to George Segal who played Pops.

It's a nicely played affair - full of heart without being too heavy handed.

It's fitting that it's Adam who gets the final word too, seeing as his relationship with his grandfather was such an important element of this show.

Yes, Erica treats Geoff badly, but other than that, a good episode.

This is their tribute to George?!?

Absolutely awful, but this show has been nose diving for a while. From Bev singing, Adam's embarrassing half shirt, Erica continuing to treat Geoff like garbage, and the bill and ted theme is just lazy and stupid. Everyone responsible for this episode should be fired.

I only watched this because it was a tribute to George Segal

George Segal and Pops was the only good thing about this show. He should have gotten a better tribute than this. I know they wanted to do something fun but for this one time couldn't they have had the characters act with a little sense. But no we get some wacky adventure which then all of a sudden swerves into some lesson. I wish they had just done a clip show showing George's best moment as Pops.
