LaVar Ball wants you to like him.
At least that seems like the goal as Ball and talented sons join the reality TV family pantheon alongside “Keeping Up With The Kardashians” and “The Real Housewives of New York.”
But unlike the Kardashians, who never really care about authenticity, “Ball In The Family,” which released its first two episodes Thursday on Facebook, tries to be sympathetic to the Ball patriarch while showing his brashness isn’t just there to generate social media buzz.
In the show, produced by Bunim/Murray Productions -- the crew behind the Kardashians and “The Real World," it takes only a few minutes to realize LaVar Ball and reality TV could enjoy a wonderful union.
