Bingo. It's got nothing to do with anything else. Don't play mind games with people.

The only problem I had was when he was like "a brother needs exercise" . That was like a 70s cartoon superhero line. Other than that I didn't mind the scene.
But dude is a older kat. Heck I know older kats who say this all the time.....so I can't trip on that.
Riverdale and Dynasty probably push the limits the most.
Especially Riverdale because they are supposed to be in High School but Archie be fukking Veronica every episode
I think the Shondaland shows on ABC opened the doors for all these others to push the limit
Yep
Because there are no gay black people in real life right?

Not to hear the coli tell it. If they are gay in real life, it's only to further the big bad scary "Agenda"
I like the fact that they made Luke Cage intelligent & articulate. Actually, most of the main African American cast is portrayed as articulate & well-versed. One of my favorite scenes was a conversation between Luke and Pops while Luke was reading a copy of Walter Mosely's Little Green (side note: Little Green is a really good book, and should be added to The Coli reading list). Even though Luke is a street cat, he still reads, plays chess, and is socially concious.
Question. Why are cats comparing luke cage and this? Are they not allowed to exist at the same time without it becoming a Highlander situation?

My dude I was just about to say this, why does one have to be torn down to big up the other?
They are clearly two good shows and can stand on their own merits.

I didn't even think of Luke Cage when watching this. Like they have to be compared because its about black superheroes?
Luke Cage was dope (until the cottonmouth bs.. Everyone knows what im talking about). But despite being similar, there are way different elements in both shows.
The first episode of this was just ok. I guess it was because it was the pilot episode. The 2nd more was more polished and felt more like a movie more than anything. The soundtrack was better, acting, story became a lil more interesting, less cheesy, etc.

On the internet a season/show can only be the best or the worst. Nothing in between
