FX's Donald Glover Sitcom "Atlanta" Season 1 thread

[Millions]

This Montgue episode is fukking classic. Glover really needs to do a skit show

Atlanta low key is lol it starting off and ending with the storyline tho lol

Black Bieber and the trans episodes were like skits

Hell the white face kid was a skit on da low lol

 

[Reggie]

The invisible whip and how they revisited it was some genius shyt. Another great episode from Glover and the crew.

 

[Ziggiy]

At this point, with only two more episodes left in the season, all we need is Pharos and this will officially be Donald Glover's year....


Not since Will Smith I don't think, has a black artist been so throughly embraced in two mediums within one year. (1997 he dropped Men In Black and Big Willie Style) go ahead and drop Pharos for the culture Donald

oh I cant wait for this

 

[Cadillac]

Aww shyt

The fukkery that's about to ensue

that ep alone will make those "are bireacials black" and bedwench threads multiply tenfold in TLR

if 10 minutes of a Jessie Williams speech gets nikkas to focus on him being Biracial instead of the message. Just think of what this ep gon do

 

[Cadillac]

So no S2 until 2018

this show goin down boondocks route

which is funny cause I see this show as the soul successor to Boondocks in quality

long ass period between seasons.

I just hope it dont end up like Boondocks did in season 4

dont stray in that direction Donald

Nah.

If Atlanta takes a long break, it's because Donald is working on another project that wasn't anticipated.

McGruder, even going back to when he was running the comic strip, would get burnt out and shyt and just take long ass breaks.

Thoughts regarding Donald Glover and Issa Rae’s new black media movement

Black love, provide the adequate electric
for what is lapsed and lenient in us now.

Rouse us from blur, Call us. Call adequately the postponed corner

brother. And call our man in the pin-stripe suiting and

restore him to his abler logic; to his people.

Call to the shattered sister and repair her

in her difficult hour, narrow her fever.

-Gwendoline Brooks
The premiere episode of Insecure, created and starring Issa Rae, almost immediately troubled me. As someone who is naturally attracted to what Issa Rae personifies (beauty, intelligence, determination, endless creative talent) I was both troubled and offended by the depiction of the black men in her world; as lazy, unambitious slackers who are woefully unprepared for any type employment.
