I just want to know how In Living Single and the other show he referenced were consdered hood shows? This just shows how ignorant and unlikable this kneegrow is. He just gives off a hole vibes.

@11:07 any successful show with Back actors who other Black people embraced is hood to this jealous, untalented, foot shuffling hack.

Family Matters was written by white people for white people, with a Black cast but not a Black attitude. It was cute but not relevant.

Oh, He's on a Book Tour. I wondered why he was all of a sudden being interviewed and talked about as of late.

Pathetic. And what stereotypes did we have to portray for a check? Same reason John Amos left Good Times.

He will spin the story until he makes himself sick. Thought he ate with the statement now trying to speak deep thought. STOP IT!
