Assuming there is one, what is the difference between older Black sitcoms and modern black sitcoms?

[cole phelps]

You can do better than that, breh

the older ones had better plots/creativity a show like fresh prince was completely different from a show like family matters where as now these new sitcoms all feel the same
to generic and bland....

Black culture period needs to be repaired

 

[Fefe]

Better cultural references
Better writers
Better actors

Also, there were more black women on TV back then. Now they have a lot of Latina, white-passing and ethnically ambiguous women playing black women.

I liked Kevin Hart a lot when he first came out and I applaud the man going for his money but I feel like he's overexposing himself right now

He works really hard, dudes got a lotta movies coming out over the course of the year too.

Dude has his own production company with hartbeat productions and is one of the few brothers pushing forwards black owned movies.

Dude pockets 100% of the profits off think like a man and his stand up movies.

Brothers even got his own show, which is funny af.

He's real guy imo and you can't do anything but respect the hustle

No, Kevin Hart does not get 100% profits off "Think Like A Man" franchise. He probably received a high upfront salary for the sequel.

 

[marcuz]

most black sitcoms are always based on some outrageous scenario that involves a lot of music, dancing, and cross dressing. white sitcoms just stick with situational humor.

Dude produced it tho, he distributed it too

dude's hartbeat productions company put all the money up front and took in all the profit. He's not just an actor
