The Cancelled Black Sitcoms Thread

[The Phoenix]

Sparks was the first show that I ever saw Terrence Howard in. I remember him being the punching bag in that show. So when I saw him in other stuff afterwards I couldn't take him seriously. It's hard to believe Miguel Nunez was ever a bigger star than Howard was. But I guess that's just how it goes.

Went back and watched Roc on youtube recently it was such a good show didnt get a long enough run.

I remember Cindy from En Vogue was on there, she had a nice lil run around that time acting wise with tv and Juice

The two main broads was fine. It's crazy but the curly headed one is 48 years old.

This was kinda a black show

Speaking of Holly Robinson Pete(sp?)


now en vogue hates each other.

raven still called herself black at the time.... & the kid Wesley Snipes from Sugar Hill...

I loved my brother and me
The little one is so adorable, but I remember their sister always being mean as fukk and their parents openly displaying Coleman love on black TV. I'm not a delta but the shyt was beautiful.

Apparently Dee Dee went to morehouse and is mad successful. The older boy is a wanna be rapper going by the name "Showbiz" and the husky friend of his now cross dresses

Dee Dee was & STILL is fine as fukk!

I was too happy when I aw how he look now.

My suprise to seeing Big Worm on that show... Now sure if came before Friday or not, but mannnn I was when I made the connection. & it was rather obvious it was a corny show. The dad daydreamed more than Doug Funnie.

DL Hughley ain't that bad, lol
I've seen every special of his, listen to his radio show and bought his book, all because of my love of the sitcom
Mad loyal

They didn't show C Bear and Jamal in Canada (or at least I don't remember if they did) but Kim Fields was whipping mad work in the 90s

 

[Regine Hunter]

Yeah its mad corny but thats kind of why i liked it. love the scene when him and Faizon are teaching the class and are dressed up/rapping like Slick Rick & Biggie and Warren G was the student who kept his head down the entire class

My suprise to seeing Big Worm on that show... Now sure if came before Friday or not, but mannnn I was when I made the connection. & it was rather obvious it was a corny show. The dad daydreamed more than Doug Funnie.

Both are from 95 and it says Parent'hood debuted in January.. Friday in April of 95.
