Was the show Martin really colorist?

Forget Martin but Gina always play the upper light skin role



-House party she lived in a good neighborhood while the dark skin lived in the hood


- lil shop of horror and the spike Lee movie where she lick dude head she was the pretty girl


- And my wife and kids




The only movie I think she took a lost was boomerang to robin givens

Next y'all gonna be saying Kyle Barker hated dark skinned women because of how he went at Max on Living Single.

But Pam got at Martin for being a broke boy and that shyt hurt him to the core cause they made way more bank than him. Of it was as bad as people say then Martin would always win.. She got at him a lot though. Pam was a very strong character on the show.. She had to remind us that she wasn’t apart of the regular cast officially until later in season one or season 2. I really don’t know what people are trying to do with these conversations so many years after the show ended.. There’s a reason people still love it so much after all these years.

man that's a bunch new black twitter garbage

let me know when they make a show that's enjoyable

It feels like the only shows that are off limits to them fall under LGBTQ+ and that's only cause they shook

The character Martin was playing was always hating on Pam, but the show treated her with nothing but respect. The show is over 20 years old and you've never heard anyone even come close to making these crazy claims before.

No I didn't say that you did lol. I know colorism exist but this isn't one of those instances people have given numerous examples why it's not.

It's the same argument

You forgot skool daze where she was THE TOP sorority chick.

That said I'm not gonna bag on her because Hollywood has an odd problem casting light skin black women who aren't mixed.

Umm yeah... How. Many shows can you name where the dark one is the wife/main character and the light skinned one is the sidekick and the butt of all the jokes?

Goodtimes, The Jeffersons, etc... Y'all read too much into these things.
