Remember the UPN channel??

[3rdWorld]

People made fun of and looked down on UPN and the WB back in the days..
But they represented Black folks well, better than BET ever did and now we have nothing..sometimes you dont realise how good you got it till its gone.

Doesn't UPN still exist? Isn't it just My___ now?


How The WB turned into the CW is still a mystery to me. They did a COMPLETE 180.

Seems like what is left for us is only there to put ignorance on display. All the diversity is GONE.
White people kinda suffered from a similar thing when reality television took off, but they have hundreds of channels and hundreds of websites with
content.

[Mister_DoItNice]

YO! That Mcpherson tape! I remember watching that as a lil kid with my family. It was almost 10 when it ended and I had to go upstairs to sleep.
My hallway was dark I was turning on ALL the lights to get to my room. I finally made it to my room and turned on the TV so I had a light on for
the night...Sinbad's late night show was on

 

[3rdWorld]

A Black Tv station with good decent respectable content could take off. theres a huge untapped market waiting to be exploited.

 

[Milk N Cookies]

Upn was the network that gave us Moesha! I love watching reruns of that show
