I dig this show despite the goofiness at times....I’ll continue to watch religiously. With her being EP, I got some words for Angie about all the black characters being gay, tho...,

I should watch it. It’s dope?

It’s actually pretty good. I like the different crisis and rescue situations they put together on each episode. I mean, a lot of it is cringeworthy, but the background episodes of the characters showing how they ended up at the fire station are very good. It’s a good watch overall. Another one on the same level is the show The Rookie...

Top tier White actresses never make big bucks starring in tv shows with a Black significant other.

These bw/wm shows have an audience or they wouldn't get cast like they do.

Pro black simps have to come to terms with facts and stop being beta cuck boys running around with there RBG "black women is god" capes.

My wife used to watch this show on the strength. I peeped it one time and within 10 minutes I nope'd out. It was some dumb episode where these old jawns were trying to do band practice in a garage and something exploded and they ended up high as all hell.

I was done with the dumb ass show

I mean yeah, a lot of it is stupid as hell...it’s network tv so it’s expected. It’s a guilty pleasure I guess...I tune in every time
I’ll support Angela in that regard...

Correct.

All praises due to capitalism




Black men need to start cashing in on that audience for personal gain & start producing similar shows



Its not gonna go anywhere, so we might as well get the bag too.

 

[Will Ross]

She should be getting more

 

[SleezyBigSlim]

$450k is nice. If she does 10 episodes this year that's $2.5 million You gotta remember half that going to taxes

Less taxes if she gets paid per episode and not a lump sum

Flowers for the queen

 

[Nar-el]

Just say y'all hate black women and keep it fukking pushing. God damn, everything you can do to tear a black woman down, so worried about what color penis she's around.

Nah, it ain’t even like that. Angela is my favorite actress but if you think her getting a groundbreaking bag with this particular role is a coincidence, I have a bridge to sell you. It’s more about Hollywood than her. She’s still a legend.

 

[Coco Loco]

There was a thread saying shes being held down by hollywood and on a bumass 911 show

Yup and we all tried to tell OP he was definitely looking at it the wrong way.

So she's still eating despite her falling out with Tyler Perry? I had no idea.

Yup, eating good

 

[OfTheCross]

that show is terrible. good for her tho

 

[Sad Bunny]

About to watch an episode tonight

 

[Vεnεficα]

On a slightly unrelated note she'd be far more convincing as Robyn McCall on the equalizer than queen Latifah.

 

[Sad Bunny]

First two episodes were dope
