The writing is suspect but this show is cool i think it more so exposes the c00ns and bed wenches on twitter .
I personally know all the characters on the show in real life.
Reggie and coco for sure.
I know nikkas always chasing after lighskin women.
coco came from the hood but now panders to white people cause she wants to play it safe.
Gabe always wanna be down white boy.

Episode 5-10 are some of the best written and acted episodes of television I've seen in awhile. Only Atlanta is better.
The next two years are going to be GOAT years for black entertainment. You've got Spike Lee's She's Gotta Have It series, The third season of The Carmichael Show coming on the 31st, Insecure in July, Atlanta season 2 in 2018, and THE BLACK PANTHER CRUSHING THE BUILDINGS IN FEBRUARY
Im trying to get into the Carmicheal show but for some reason it just feels like the shows always pushes an agenda.
Like one episode solely focuses on one thing gun rights, lgbt, or blm and it doesn't come off natural same with blackish.
Other than that the actors are great.

The show is just corny regardless of how good/great the actors are. I really wanted to like the show, but it sucks

Yea I only watched because of David alan grier, Loretta Devine, and lil Rel anyways lol.
Breh, light skinned and mixed black women were pushed as an ideal for a long time even among black folk. I know some GORGEOUS dark skinned black women that have insecurity issues for the same reason. You can go look on Twitter and see how colorism has affected dark skinned women.
We have black women bleaching their skin to be viewed as more attractive. That shyt is real.
Naw you tripping that girls eyes
Nah, they're all dimes and on the same tier of attractiveness. Jo and natural hair Coco are
I don't think they forgot about it. You can easily infer what happened. Troy is too scared to stand up to his dad for her, Sam absolutely wouldn't respect that, and they'd end up breaking up.

Its so refreshing to see someone acknowledging this especially on the coli. I heard some horrible stuff from lsa about this place lol.

After reading your posts in this thread it seems like you don't like it because you can't relate to the black collegiate experience and that's why you prefer Atlanta as more descriptive of us? I'm on the cusp of the millennial gen and i still feel this show was good at tackling topics in a way that simple Twitter and Facebook posts can't. I also like how it just humanizes us, specifically young people. We need as many of these things as we can get- black kids just living our lives and being real about the world we live in. It's weird to complain about bed bucking and wenching when the star of Atlanta is married to a nonblack person and makes songs about how he's addicted to white and Asian girls lol.And you find this valid, breh?From the girl striaght bedwenching?
Do you realize how this reflets the creator of this series when he consturcts these characthers and constructs their motives in such a manner?
You keep using "real experiences and conversations among our people" as an excuse for just shoehorning.
"But it's relatable"
Ain't no one in here been to an Ivy League school.
In the end we all gotta tell our story right? DWP imo was done well and speaks to this generation in an unapologetic way. I thought the way they called out Tarantino was

got people in this video calling the series trash and not accurate.
i'm not alone.
At this point breh
you either like it or you don't. If you don't feel it's accurate or someone else doesn't that's cool. Beauty of life we've all experienced different shytStickStickly

I'll take a look at it later but I never understand people's obsession with claiming a fictional tv show is "inaccurate"
