Why isnt Martin considered a "new black" or "c00n" show?

[﹏﹏⛴﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏]

Y'all dudes got too much time on y'all hands lol

Post raised some good points but...

Id rather be no job having Tommy than work for Stan like Martin

Martin had to look for Tommy's help when he got kicked out of his own apt

Y'all keep acting like Martin is the pinnacle of black television achievement, and the "GOAT siticom" but Im surprised the show hasnt raised y'all ire given the coli militant standards, and yall collective ability to turn everything into degradation of the black race:

The central character is Martin, who is unserious, unfocused, unintelligent and lives so far off on the economic margins that he can only afford a modest apt in a low income area of detroit, which could be a housing project if you look at the building and those who live there hard enough.

Martin, of course, plays a host of characters who are all dumber than the next. One a is female named 'Sheneneh' (black male emasculation? gay agenda?), who seems to be written with the sole intent of maxing out on every bad black woman stereotype ever invented.

His two best friends are Cole and Tommy. The former is a barely functioning retard, and the latter is best known for not having a job.

Martin's girlfriend is Gina, who enjoyed the best written character on the show. She's extremely bright, and the only one thats clearly college educated. She's successful, not promiscuous, logical, the emotional and moral anchor in almost every situation, and always the voice of reason amongst a sea of idiots. And also not so coincidentally she was the lightest person on the show --- her skin so light in fact she was practically racially ambiguous.

Pam is Gina's best friend. Her character isnt too offensive, but she was clearly written to serve as Gina's inferior and chosen as Martin's foil for a reason. She gets by on her sex appeal and little else --- certainly not her integrity, which is always painted as being low to non-existent.

The rest of the show is filled out by a motley crew of aimless low lifes --- bruh man? hustle man? Stan, the station manager at WZUP????

I know its just a show designed for jokes, but logic like that hasnt stopped ya'll before. What gives?

Is nothing sacred?

Always thought the show was c00ntastic.

Never thought it was c00ntastic but definitely overrated.

 

[Dr. Sebi Jr.]

Everyone, everywhere, is a c00n.

Martin was absolutely hilarious. He made black people look cool as fukk. He reminds me of my father. Same attitude and style.

Out of all the shyt people have and will call c00nish shyt. What separates Martin from any of it. It might actually be God Tier level c00ning.

Martin wasn't unserious, unintelligent, unfocused but He hosted his own radio show?
