The Vince Staples Show - TV Series (Netflix/Produced by Kenya Barris & Vince Staples/Feb 15th)

But there's definitely a market for more understated and cerebral Black humor, which I personally think should continue to be explored.

I truly wonder if there is.

Subtlety is a rare commodity in art/mass media generally, and Black art specifically.

I live for the stuff, but if I had to make a living doing that, I'd starve.

If there wasn't Atlanta wouldn't have become the cultural phenomenon that it was.

Really good show that could become great.
Similar to Atlanta but so fukking what.
Since we're used to it, a lot of us don't realize how surreal inner city Black life truly is and how bizarre some of the people in the hood actually are.
A lot of us like our humor really broad, slapstick, and silly (Wayans family, Martin), so those people wont like it.

Sometimes Atlanta tired too hard to be weird. If Vince reigns it in, he can avoid that trap.
The show suffered when he chased that (theme park and finale eps).

Vanessa Bell Calloway was brilliant as his mama. Ol boy who was robbing the bank was killin it, too.
Definitely want to see more.

There’s room for Atlanta, SouthSide and this show


Those shows or any show after Atlanta shouldn’t be so hardly put up against it

Cultural Phenom?

Niche hit.

I aint like it

I mean I think there’s a space for shows like Atlanta and this to exist. There’s also a lesser known show in the same vein called Flatbush Misdemeanors which is like “Atlanta” but in Brooklyn. Each has their own style and flavor. This was funny to me. The bank scene, the argument at the theme park, the beginning of the family reunion ep all gold. Hope he gets another season to expand on this

That's cool if it's funny but it wasn't that funny. I let out a few chuckles at best, it's okay but not up to par.

It's Atlanta syndrome.
