What Tracee Ellis Ross ass looking like on this show? It will be the deciding factor on if I watch it or not

She's not wearing yoga pants if that's what you're asking.

But in this scene, you can kind of see her nipples poking out.

idk if i was in a silly mood or wat but this shyt had me laughing all throughout...the only part i didnt like was when he said that one dude was a "honorary brutha" which is that incognito shyt i cant fuk with everything else was pretty funny tho

 

[Notorious 1 E.Y.E.]

Are people really that comfortable going thru people's fridges?

They didn't show it once.... not even when she mentioned she has a big ass. Honestly as a guy who became a fan of girlfriends for the eye candy alone I was disappointed.

With that said it was an ok episode, its pretty clear this show is aimed at upper middle/upper class African Americans but at least they critiqued that lifestyle for some of the bullshyt that comes with it. I'll give it another shot

 

[True Blue Moon]

No shyt. I am biracial so I don't need a refresher course on what a mixed black and white person looks like. I am just saying she is not so light that jokes about her complexion make any sense at all especially not when Laurence Fishburne is on this show too and he is damn near the same complexion as Ross. Talking about her pigment came off as tone deaf.

I'm with you. She still has enough "Sista girl" features that she's not getting any passes. I'm sure she grew up feeling like a black girl because that's what people saw and how she was treated.

Don't see the longevity in this once the racial jokes get old. Cast doesn't have any real chemistry either, feels forced, though it could change as it was the pilot.

Can't check for it then...I'm interested in the ass only...married to a desi chick so I don't need a show to "educate" me about biracial families...

Let me know if they do show that ass though

even tho i disagree with u i think abc gotta give it time to fully get that chemistry....i mean did u ever see the first season of my wife and kids

I've decided to give in & at least check out the Pilot.

Please keep in mind that:
1. I usually don't jump into shows during their 1st season. I normally want them to get at least 2 seasons under their belt.
2. I think Family sitcoms are outdated. I haven't watched a Live-action Family sitcom since "The George Lopez Show". (No, I don't count "Arrested Development" as a traditional family sitcom).
3. I haven't given a fukk about a black sitcom since the first 3 or 4 seasons of "The Game".

So I'm pretty much only giving this pilot a chance because
1. It's a Black modern single-cam Sitcom with 3 black familiar actors I like
2: The showrunnner is a black producer/writer that has credibility & a resume.
3. It's on Network TV & ABC is definitely the best fit of the Broadcast networks. If this was on cable I would've ignored it. Cable sitcoms don't matter to me like Cable Dramas.
4. It's getting good reviews from TV critics overall (it has a 85% from critics on Rotten Tomatoes) & including TV critics I fukks with.
5. Everybody gonna be talking about it every week on this forum, Black twitter, black podcasts, & etc.
