Sick of all these corny violent hop hop shows or music.
Why not a positive black show without stereotyped gawt dammit
they have one. black-ish, but none of yall watch it.
the wire and empire, however, seem to be a community favorite, as well as love and hiphop, and those particular shows are REAL people. thats the sad part.
I have no problems with Lee Daniels method, sometimes people need to see a mirror in order to fix themselves. is he extreme sometimes? sure, but most of it is mild and some even right. Not too far from The boondocks, but McGruder always had a message at the end, but that's because its a cartoon, so it's not a continuous story/chapter, like real shows.
as for his sexuality, this homophobia in the black community, and other mentalities, is why I consider myself a lone wolf. I can't fly with a pack of dummies. I have no problems with gays on tv. People saying this is being jammed down black peoples throat, have clearly never seen the 100 white shows with homosexuals in it, or broke back mountain winning awards, yet its us and only us? comedic stupidity and ignorance. All I can do is smh. Socially too much of the community are about as backwards as redneck racist hicks in swamps of Mississippi, then I remember where the majority of the community lie.....in the swamps along with them. *sigh*
same folks still believe in voodoo, witch doctors, Illuminati this and that, jesus and other stupid imaginary fantasy shyt with no proof or bases. thus the term 'backwards'.
There are as many good people on the show, as ratchet, but alas we focus on the negative and hate on a perfectly successful black tv series. Meh, you can't make everyone happy.
ps. I still think Power is better.

Can't wait for season 2.
