If its not a hood story its not a Black story - Urkel

[Canada Goose]

This has me like as Martin and Living Single characters were just regular Black People, not street nikkas or anything like that.

- Cosby Show
- Different World
- Living Single
- Etc..

All did well, they were not "Hood Stories".

Family Matters was just Goofy, I watched it as a kid Cause of Laura and Myra.
Otherwise I wouldn't have bothered.

 

[King Poetic]

I understand what he talking about but he could have left off the tv analogies with martin and living single

He basically saying if your story isn’t a allen iverson, 50 cent type of story and more like kobe, grant hill , young mc or his then it get look down at in certain aspects of society

He just saying black people are more than the stereotype

It just didn’t age well. It was great for us when we were kids watching this show. But watching as an adult it looks hella corny. Has nothing to do with a “hood story.”

Martin and living single have replay value in my adulthood. I wouldn't be able to sit through 1 episode of family matters at my age now.

He needs therapy because he’s angry and hurt.

 

[Mike18jj]

I'm tripping , but don't he got a account on here or something?

 

[RickyDiBiase]

there's so many black shows that rightfully dog walk that POS Family Matter, we'd be in this bytch singing the praises of Little Bill

 

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

He makes a point but it wasn't really like that in the 90s when he was popular. Later on, it became more and more difficult to get anything through Hollywood that wasn't about violence or hardship

 

[Elim Garak]

He was complaining the other day about being a Seinfeld Stan and black people not fukking with it also.

Martin and Living single are not hood stories

this nikka making me hate family matters

Martin featured a popular radio talk show host turned popular tv show host and his successful wife who was a marketing executive. Living Single featured a successful lawyer, an entrepreneur running her own magazine, a NYC stock broker, etc. all living in a big ass Brooklyn brownstone. How were those his examples?
