You should check out canon busters. Its a cartoon/anime show in its early pilot stages from kickstarter. Its made by a black guy and it has some black lead characters as well. You can still donate on their site for a limited time.
http://www.cannonbusters.com/store/

donated to that already , liked it . but unfortunately its not a full season confirmed. hope others who are seeing this donate to that show anime/cartoons are really costly , its looks to have a promising storyline and character design like final fantasy or golden sun sort of

edit: although the show has black lead characters it seems more like for everybody type show, im talking more like family shows and stories

By the way - this isn't a popular opinion on this board, but if you don't fukk with Lucas Bros. Moving Company :ufdup:

The Black cultural references are damn near immaculate.
:snoop: I keep forgetting to check it out. Ever since I heard they had Jake the Snake on there, I knew I had to follow.

There are plenty of strong black characters on tv..well several, not plenty and most of them are women at the moment which is kinda cool in my book


This!! I don't really care for more Black shows (or even Black movies). I just want more Black character/actors & Black writers/producers/directors on the mainstream shows/movies I'm already watching.

TV Shows like "New Girl", "The Flash", "Scandal", "Sleepy Hollow", "House of Lies", & etc. are already doing this.

Breh she is the lead on sleepy hollow. The show is damn near entirely through her eyes. She's the audiences point of view. And clearly Marty Khan is the lead on house of lies. How you can say he isn't makes me think you haven't watched the show

:comeon: Based on some of your previous posts, I doubt you even watch those shows so you don't even know WTF you're talking about.


You literally created a thread about not enough Black shows on TV, than later posted you don't like any of the Black shows on TV.

Breh his point and mine was that these are strong black characters, lead characters, on good shows. I and a couple other people have named black-ish as a good show with all black leads and you scoffed at that when you probably haven't even seen it.

Empire may not be the best show on tv, we have a whole thread talking about how it isn't but it's also the number one show on network tv with a bullet. It's so far in front of the competition it's not even funny and its all black cast.

Scandal and How to get away with murder are both hit shows with strong black female leads in charge

Already named House of Lies which is centered around a black man in charge of a crisis communication firm and features his black family prominently

Better to reign in Hell than serve in Heaven
talking about shows from 2014 onwards , and don't know why the shows listed itt are mentioned at all their all shyt and embarrassing to watch

no thank you to shonda rhimes shows or that minstrel show black ish

never really liked boondocks or black dynamite that much to an extent they were half decent at best , those are cancelled now as well




yeah gave it thought
ok so start naming the shows you consider decent... then maybe we can give you some names in that direction

cause right now your tastes are looking pretty bad
