Black Cake

I enjoy this series, different multi-cultural, geographical and generational. I love seeing new talent and feel all characters have a complex enough storyline that we should have a good 5 seasons.

I really love Eleanor. I'm a fan of time-travel- the script does a good job blending past, present for each of the characters without being confusing.

The character backgrounds are revealed with the right timing and having the background makes you understand and empathize with the character being spotlighted.

I hate I found this while the streaming is live - I prefer to binge watch... I'm forced to wait until next week.

I didn't know anything about this show except a vague recollection that Oprah had "something to do with it" but didn't know to what degree until I researched a bit on IMDB. I binged all 8 episodes over a long weekend and thoroughly enjoyed the storyline, the cast, characters, and cinematography. I was sorry when the final episode ended. I did not have any trouble following the storylines or empathizing with any of the characters. I very much enjoyed watching so many extremely talented actors bring their complicated characters to life. I will look forward to a potential Season 2. Very well done!

Don't let the low rating fool you - this show is a hidden gem! I was hooked from the get-go with a story that just pulls you right in. The whole mystery surrounding Covey's disappearance back in the '60s and how it ties up with the present-day drama is nothing short of engaging.

Now, if you're a softie, be warned - the score is an emotional rollercoaster, and it's setting you up for some serious handkerchief moments in the episodes to come.

I have to give props to the creators for the attention to detail in recreating the era. It's clear they went the extra mile to get the setting just right. And oh, the performances! Mia Isaac truly shines, but I must say, at times Adrienne Warren's theatrical flair felt a bit too much amidst the subtler scenes.

But hey, the blending of family drama with a murder mystery is done so well. The show doesn't just scratch the surface but delves deep into issues of identity and family ties, all while keeping you on the edge of your seat with the mystery at hand. 'Black Cake' is definitely worth a watch,

Hulu's new show "Black Cake" is a must-watch.

This multi-generational saga, led by showrunner and executive producer Marissa Jo Cerar, weaves together elements of murder mystery and family drama.

It kicked off on November 1st.

Black Cake delivers an expansive family saga, showcasing mixed-race identities seldom seen in today's TV landscape.

This narrative also mirrors how a hidden dessert can reveal a tumultuous reality.

Beyond garnering critical acclaim, this eight-episode adaptation is a treat that mystery thriller enthusiasts have long anticipated.

The show breaks new ground by featuring a protagonist who is half-Jamaican and half-Chinese, offering a refreshing perspective seldom seen on television.

The casting of Mia Isaac, who hails from a Black and Asian background, - in the role of Covey, is a welcome breath of fresh air in the world of TV."

A good series, 3 episodes in.

Was very disappointed when learned there wouldn't be a season 2. This was such a great series and had great reviews. We were anticipating a second season and now feel cheated. It really seems shows with black characters and storyline of substance seem to get canceled especially by Hulu. I loved the characters and each character's storyline. I really thought about canceling my Hulu subscription because again they seem to cancel black driven character shows off substance and I'm not happy about how they handle black content. I how another network will pick up and continue this series to give fans what they are asking and that's good tv.
