Guess not - cause the show runner just threw her cast under the bus. JB HAS been on a promo tour for the Curb series finale... and doesn't seen to want to talk about it.
And despite that they HAVE tried to defend the show actually she is incorrect there too.
JB his comedy gold with Curb. Larry David brought blacks onto his show just as the Katrina bullshit was fading and he knew EXACTLY how to write in black characters and their story. It was perfect.
He actually sidelined his OWN costars to push the black guest stars and then brought them back like a rotating cast list. The writing used our stereotypes in a responsible way to hold a mirror up to whites. Controversy avoided.
Usually, any sort of controversy brewing for a show would cause backlash viewership.
look at X Men 97 and how they rolled out however…
This is causing backlash dismissal. Like the Amazon Rings shows. Nobody is really that interested. The timing is off. The news and media has shifted back to the whites and the outrage is over anti-semitism and Palestinian viewpoints. They almost forgot about Ukraine and the Police/ black victim narrative is all but stalled.
I was really just playing devil's advocate with this comment, but I'll own this L like a champ, because this comment has been completely demolished by reality.
I never expected a wholesale denial of reality from the creator(s), but here we are.
Nope. You were right. There is a bunch of bullshit happening here.
Like I mentioned earlier, when they go on these talk shows, they go over on what to discuss and what not to discuss so there is no “Gotcha” moment.
And with Fallon, Kimmel and Colbert. All 3 of those shows have White hosts, white producers and white writers with a predominantly white studio/tv audience.
When they have a guest promoting something new, they usually show a clip of the movie/show.
Those producers knew if they showed a clip of this series with an all White audience laughing, they would get massive blowback.
All those shows have interns on the staff whose job is too sit there and monitor the internet on what’s viral/trending. They all saw those series was getting negative blowback and reported it too the producers/writers.
This might be right. Not only do they not want the potential backlash, they just dont seem to even care. It fizzled. Done. Wasted.
the only fear is that the shit was still produced, will still be available on Netflix in a decade and our kids will see this nonsense and believe it is a faithful adaptation of what our lives were like.
And yes, human beings are that stupid. I was chit chatting with some young whiteys at my work and they were talking about throat banging Donna Reed, calling Lucy and her husband commies and believing that Hogans Heroes was real. I said niggas… SMH
