Glad you enjoy Seinfield, I love Friends. For the cast to be paid as much as they were and for the show to last as long as it did, I'm sure that means a few million other people loved it as well. I'm sorry, just couldn't get into Seinfield, even though my mom loved it. Always thought the lil standup part he did was corny.
Martin, Jamie Foxx, The Parkers, The Game, Everything Tyler Perry has ever done, The Wayans Brothers, etc etc etc. These shows are nothing like the other shows that are listed, I'd rather not get into specifics I really dont want to be the reason that this thread makes the full turn into a full on race thread, but you can tell by looking at these shows and the shows he listed for two seconds and see what the differences are. They are not the same.....
Jamie Foxx a show about a hardworking black couple that owns a hotel and brings in their talented nephew to work while also hiring 2 smart, educated african american professionals in Braxton and Fancy? That makes black people look bad? Fancy moving up in the world with good job opportunities and dating doctors? Braxton showing the black men can like things like classical music? Jamie following his dreams to be a musician while trying to pay the bills?
I like both shows you mentioned but I want to know why it's personal attacks over Martin. Dudes questioning others race and how closely they identify with it because they don't like a stereotypical and redundant show with canned laughter. Seems unfair.
i think some of those shows in particular martin where a true depiction of the avg blacks at that time. To often blacks only want to be seen in a always positive light or unreleastic situation so they wount be stereotyped.
Very well said sir
Is that really how you would describe this show to someone? Sounds like you somehow found the pitch statement for it and copied and pasted it. Go ahead and tell someone this and then have them watch the show. That is not what will jump out at them.... As if Braxton wasnt clowned for his interests, Jamie wasnt freeloading and acting a fool 98% of the time and almost every character was doing something wildly unprofessional whilst on the job at any given moment.......
This is all true, and I agree, however I was just listing the reasons that I think these shows suck. Regardless of the relatibility of it, it just wasnt funny to me. Its just not something I want to see in regards to my comedy intake and falls into the category of cheap laughs.
at the fact he thinks Trinidad James has 5 million dollars.
RGIII you scrambling for answers and reason now homie...
I know right, your assessment of the Jamie Foxx show was so astute. It was really spot on, suprised that show wasnt winning emmys left and right with it putting out such quality programing.
RGIII you scrambling for answers and reason now homie...
Hey if you enjoy stereotypes it is no skin off my back. Every time I see you post you are the first one to cry out and pull the race card when it has absolutely nothing to do with the topic.
all it takes is one statement to derail a topic on NT
to continue this derailment Im a fan of black comedies and yes some of them arent that good but the way some of you going about it yall making seem white comedies >>> black comedies and thats just not true and this is coming from someone who watches all types of comedies from Frasier to The Game and I just think IMO its just peoples preference and what type of environment they was raised in
but I do have to say that I do not for the life of me get the fascination with Seinfield and I have tried numerous times to watch AND enjoy it but I just cant its just to corny to me but I love Curb Your Enthusiasm
