Do u have a source, I don't doubt you. Just wanting to see it

I Googled it and it shows up in several articles with direct quotes from Issa herself. Here's one.

Issa Rae Talks About Her White Audience, Shonda Rhimes and Male Nudity

But I don't see that being a big deal. HBO's subscriber base and their demos skews the fukk out of all of their shows.

Just a quick Google and I found an article breaking down how Girls was viewed by more men than women and 22% who watched it live were men over 50, more than women who are the actual age of the girls in the show.

Black Lightning is awesome and i know people have their issues with Insecure but i fukks with it. Its also the ONLY television show that airs from a black female auteur which gives it cultural and historical relevance.

Yet we got Sons Of Cacs, DareCac, The Walking Cacs, all front and center on this suppsedly BLACK message board...

No one has ever asked for them to be stickied.

Every other show up there, people asked. Not saying every time it's asked for every show it's gonna happen....but it definitely ain't gonna happen if no one asks.

I don't watch 90% of the stickied shows or movies so I don't have much of a dog in this fight, either way. I didn't even sticky half the shyt that's currently up.

You’d think we’d all know the system by now :russ:

If you ask this man there’s a good chance he’ll do it. So ask. The shyt isn’t magic. Anything that’s stickied now has been asked. So rather than making this thread about why something isn’t, just waltz into one of those threads and ask for a sticky. :jawalrus:

shyt man....it damn near is magic.

I think because I'm the most visible Mod people think I have a hand in everything....I literally didn't sticky half the things currently up. I did do "The Haunting Of Hill House", because @FlyRy asked me to multiple times over 2-3 days. And that's the only thing I've watched, out of everything stickied.

On an average day I have 100+ Alerts not counting Mod shyt. I didn't even see people @ me in here until I came in the thread. I been in The Booth listening to that Gibbs x Curren$y album. :manny:

Black Lightening is corny as fukk. Never seen Insecure, will probably peep that but in general that show get's shyt on by this forum because "black feminist, bedwench!" so I wouldn't expect a lot of the people who know of the show, to be that into it to request a sticky.
