My support means zero since I stream everything on Kodi, but I'll watch just to see what it's like.

Been said already, but I find it funny how we complain about the boxes we’re put in, but people are talking about how whitewashed the characters are without any real merit. The brehs aren’t whitewashed at all. They’re all either upwardly mobile or business owners or grinding. It’s not preachy at all and blackness is never centered as a thing or source of sadness. I find it strange that brehs would dislike it. And fwiw, this is not for people saying they don’t find it funny. Humor is subjective. Moreso the one or two brehs that find the characters to be the problem.

Im not asking for a Huey Newton, just a strong confident sounding Breh lol

But maybe that’s the LA vibe.

That’s a fair criticism imo, because I feel the same. I would’ve thought the finance dude would’ve been that guy, but nah. Although, based on his last episode and leaving the white firm to do his own thing who knows. We’ll see.

Same. That’s what I thought as well. But yeah maybe he’ll grow into that.

But I’m overall happy to see a bunch of black actors & actresses on the screen, drinking and talking about wine doing normal stuff.

I can’t get over that Paddington line, man said he just a black man doing his best:laff:

Yea, I see how it’s just a zany and extra show but I still like it. We ain’t a monolith but I understand y’all criticism, let’s see the chemistry in another season

Show is corny and cheesy but entertaining if that makes sense. It's a light hearted show that's quirky but good hearted and hope it's lasts for awhile. We will see, they mdae it to a second season so hopefully they can keep going.
It’s black “friends” it’s cool for what it is, i think the writers room need to step it up though, the show has potential
