Its still top 3 alltime black sitcoms, but its support cast was weaker than the others.

Pam was nice eye candy but her jabs at Martin were wack and she got on my nerves with her hating.
Cole was hit or miss.
Gina was so fukking corny and was even cornier when she tried to act like Martin.
However, Tommy was cool, and bruhman is one of the GOATs.

When you compare it to other classic black sitcoms( i dont watch white shows) the supporting cast was lacking.

Fresh Prince you had Geofrrey, Jazz, Carlton and Uncle Phil

Wayans Bros you had Pops, Dupree, TC, White Mike, D :laugh:
Plus you had two stars and both were funny as hell

Co sign ? :takedat:

Pam was lame and none of her jokes were funny. Please link me to 3 funny jokes Pam said :heh:

Meanwhile Uncle Phils classic outburst, like when he G checked wills dad :wow:

You're comparing emotional scenes to comedy scenes?:what:

FBOB was a stand out cast, everyone top notch and the og aunt viv was funny. It's better than Martin but its 2 different types of sitcom. Martins is slap stick while FBOB was emotionally attached as well as laughter.

Otis best character on martin.

Of course they did. TPTB gave them a 25 cent budget for that show.

- Weak cast (aside from Martin).
- Maybe the worst writing staff for any long-running TV show ever
- Cheap-ass set design

And they still made it work for 5 seasons. It's amazing when you think about it.

Pam getting under a trance and acting like Martin was classic. That was dead on.

Look like you judging it like you started watching it today...

When it was actually showing, not the reruns, wasn't nothing weak or corny about it...
After the 3rd season or so, it wasnt "new and fresh" any more...

The 1st couple of seasons was dat sh!t when it originally aired...
