“Black.Ish”: ABC (again) Lets Us Know That Hollywood Will Remain Forever Clueless

by | Jul 24, 2014 | Opinion | 0 comments

Only one thing happened on ABC: They decided to “spoof” yet another sitcom about “Black” people pretending to be white pretending to be Black–just to see what we would say; or this holy mess is seriously about to be a TV show this September.

Yeah, Black”ish.” Right. As if they could think up some new “zingers” we haven’t heard thousands of times…

If it’s actually a TV show and Laurence and Anthony and Tracee aren’t just ‘funnin’ us’ for a reaction, then there are only two things left to say:

1) There is nothing remotely funny about white people’s “jokes” about Black people,

or…

2) …about Black people selling white people ideas about what THEY think is cute or funny about us “colorful people.”

They even have the entire family looking like they just fell off the layaway racks at K-Mart, or the Big Round Stage at the UniverSOUL Circus, or maybe even out of a “Skittles” bag?

This combo-whammy JJ Evans-esque Cosby.ish middle-income “find some more cute one-liners and zingers and call it a sit-com so the n-words can go sit down and shut up about the lack of good Black TV in Hollywood” has gotten to the point where it’s so cliche, so ill-conceived and so mediocre that every Black person in America, and probably a lot of white people, will be rehearsing the lines on this one before Season One is done with taping.

Dialogue

Dad says “Boooooyyyeeee! If you don’t get out my house, ahma put you out on a rocket! Right to the moon!

Smart-mouthed little “wiz” kid say: “He said I don’t know how to do the dirty dozens and I know –snap!snap!in z-formation– I can beat him down on ‘yo mama’ jokes any day! BOO-YAH!!

[*Laugh track*ha ha ha!right]

If it has a serious moment, it’ll be more like: “Oh, our ghetto cousin Pam on the OTHER side of town got pregnant out of wedlock…

Back to the drawing board, 4reals. I don’t need to watch this, I can write all the lines for it myself before it airs.

Hollywood truly needs to hire the REAL writers.

They’re the only ones who do some serious comedy.
