When the last time a black person had a sitcom that lasted for more than two seasons on CBS?

Cosby?

 

[MenacingMonk]

They need to let Martin be Martin and then i'll watch it. I don't expect him to be pulling the same antics he was doing in the 90's on his first show. But don't give him a lot of watered down jokes and material to work with either. I wonder who they will cast as his daughters. Im betting one of them will be Raven Symone.

The link was from last year, I heard this project was scrapped. Did they rethink it?

grow up nikka...martin is almost 50...you not gonna be in your 20s forever either

Will Smith and Martin Lawrence are like 4 year apart though. Martin just let himself go a lil bit.

good a black show with white producers..this should go well

I had my fingers crossed that this wouldn't be a multicamera project. I think Martin would kill in a single camera project.

And ya, I know that the original TV show was multicamera.

When exactly was the last time Martin was funny in anything?
Last thing I remember him being in was that horrible Big Momma sequel.

People seemed to like Girlfriends

 

[young3000]

Had to reread the title....Thought it said Martin and Fred Sanford

 

[Danie84]

It's Martin, so I'll peep the pilot. But, Martin's recent track record doesn't give me hope this will be good. At least, we have TVONE and now MTV2's heavy syndication of ol' school Martin

Kevin Arnold is back wit a black friend?
OH shyt
