Great show. I’m almost sad that the story is over
they might have to cancel this show. I don't even know how they top this at this point.

It’s not bad at all. It just suffers from a bit of an identity crisis in the first few episodes, but that happens with majority of shows.My Ex told me I should go back and watch season 1. She admits season 2 is better but highly recommended me to go back to season 1 for context.
Its clear that authentically black people had a heavy hand. It’s close to every middle class black breh’s dating story if you’re semi in the streets.
I was dying at them questioning my man’s blackness at every turn though
my wife made the observation that Mia validated his blackness, and that was what initially made her feel special to him.
The lead guy and girl are great, and they carry the show. That is why I am into it. There are some cringeworthy aspects such as his rant when they ask him if he is alright, but being uncomfortable with something personally does not make it wrong, especially when we are speaking about art or entertainment. I do find it intriguing how people judge shows by how much they can relate to whatever. If it is compelling, then I do not see why you need to relate to something to be into it. It is even more perplexing when the same people boasting about things for their relatability are always screaming about escapism or whatnot. People always raging on the internet are usually imbeciles who no one oughta engage with seriously anyways
How was the work rant cringeworthy?
It was pretty spot on imo
Yeah, his company is not in support of Black writers, but them asking him if he is alright after a modern lynching video is what sends him off the ledge about that? He had nothing to say when they were passively aggressively shooting down the authors, though. It is disingenuous, white-obsessed blue Twitter babble to a tee. It is pretty in line with his character, though, so I am not penalizing it for that even though it is cringeworthy
Ehh....as someone who works in white corporate type world....you learn to let shyt slide til one day you just get tired of the bullshyt. Straw that breaks the camel's back and that whole era of corporations/companies with their fake allyship/concern became extremely annoying and infuriating.
I get your angle/POV...and some shows are guilty of that but I dont think it was disingenuous really.....it didnt come off like pandering or the usual blavity/twitter nonsense
Plus dude was going thru some shyt so a temporary meltdown isnt something outta left field
What do you mean by "in the streets?" I highly doubt that to be the majority experience. If you pine for white bytches and whine about crackers not accepting you then probably. Otherwise, it is no
