Yep. That's why I fucked wth it

Really well done. Created by little Quinta whose run has been amazing. Went from YouTube skits to buzzfeed to Black Lady Sketch Show on HBO note running her own abc show- gotta respect it!

everyone that I know who has watched it fucking loved it

perfect mix of funny/likeable cast, heart and humor

Watched it yesterday...I like it.

 

[TheyCallMeBe]

Y’all gonna inquire about her after the first couple episodes so I’ll save you the trouble of being thirsty trying to find her like my black ass

 

[xxironxx]

^^ that was the boys momma?

 

[RoomService]

The show creator is 32 years old.

Yessir

 

[Flawless]

Meh, they are trying to hard to make that chic likeable and the principal is too incompetent.

 

[Tom Slick]

Meh, they are trying to hard to make that chic likeable and the principal is too incompetent.

The principal is both a bad character and an uncharismatic actor. She needs to get fired and bring on somebody sinister, but not buffoonish.

 

[dbluesun]

i'm gonna watch it cause i like the Wee People

 

[PaYpA]

Did the new episode come on yet?

Now THAT is an interesting list especially with almost all the new shows being so adult.

What are the top 5 (more or less) family shows that we actually watch as a family?

I think its..it's...

Wonder Years
Raising Dion
British Baking Championship
Mandalorian/Boba Fett
Abbott Elementary (now)
Amazing Race


I think I probably could say almost anything Disney+ but I think Moon Knight might be the 1st show I don't let the kids watch.

I like her

 

[playahaitian]

I like her

Yup

Isn't she on that HBO sketch show too?

I don’t know what show you are talking about on HBO

 

[playahaitian]

I don’t know what show you are talking about on HBO

A Black Lady Sketch Show.

Yeah she was on there 1st season.

That show is wildly inconsistent I gave up on it.

But she is simply perfect on here.

Oh well I’ll have to look that up… I don’t fuck with HBO after what they did with Lovecraft country

You are not wrong at all.

That sh*t still confuses the hell out of me

 

[Aww Skeet Skeet!]

I think the first season of A Black Lady Sketch Show was may have been slightly better than the 2nd. But I do agree it's a bit inconsistent.

Big girl started showing off the titties more in season two though.

I'm going to make an effort to check it out

Sidebar:

The Michael che show really really surprised me with how good it actually was. Even his recent Netflix stand up was pretty good.
