I don't know if you knew but, where I stay, we don't have cable. Comcast be fucking up!! But anyways that beside the facts, I 've been hearing about this show that stars David Allen Grear from In Living Color (back when Jlo was just a back up dancer), and the show is called Chocolate New. It should be self-explanatory but its the "news" done from the "black" POV. At first I thought that it would be kind of a dumb stereotypical "black" show but it actually pretty good and ITS HELLA FUNNY!
HA!
What I really like about the show is, the actors don't necesserally act like the stereotypical black person, in fact, they do a very good job of maintaining the image of the "standard American" and all the while poking fun at how society views black people. As with the Nickelodeon executive who need to "darken" things up. It was funny because people really act and say things just like that. If you were to ever look up movie castings they will say thing like "Looking for tall dark black man to play the role of Pookey the drug dealer." It crazy because that stuff really happens!
