What is this wayward deliciously delightful Ness?
Last time I was this titilated was on the A train to no parts in particular shopping a full day in Manhattan, going to a street fair
And walking home by the magical shop lights of the city of Gotham. All the while thinking that the world of possibilities lay verdant at my feet. Thank you. Thank you!
There's nothing like this currently on T.V. Terrance Nance and his creative team are really pushing the boundaries of television far with this output. It's also incredible seeing black issues take its rightful place in the vast space of entertainment.
And the folks talking about white guilt and reverse racism... take that somewhere else. Terrance Nance and black thought is here to stay!

So I was recommended to me to watch this so I did. Now initially watching it I was like what the hell am I watching? after a few sketches I realized I was watching a documentary-style sketch comedy show with a satirical twist. Every episode takes that particular approach to cover some touchy topics from Black face, toxic masculinity, trans living, rape culture, body dysmorphia to good hair in the black community. The show also give clips revealing a black history that most wouldn't learn in school. The show displays strong cultural and political significance to the black society with a unique yet gripping approach. The narrative kept me intrigued enough to binge watch the entire season. The overall vibe gave me adult swim, chappelle show with some controversial but needed plots. I can see why it's on HBO at midnight but I'm glad I was recommended it.
This is one of the best shows on television. Rather than laying blame, it shows where people of color are & where we have been. It's a very creative dose of reality. It's one of those shows made for us by us. If you are a part of the "mainstream" of society or not, it gives you the choice to buy into what you're watching or not. 10/10 - I look
Forward to Season 2.
This show is amazing! The low rating is absolutely racially motivated. The show is eclectic, diverse in topics and showing Black folks in different hues, sex-positive / explorative, open-minded, Womanist, LGBT/Queer-friendly, vulnerable, honest, smart, intelligent, factual, witty, cerebral, and experimental. Usually, genres like this and those of the "weird /niche /experimental/ realism" are relegated to white actors for a white audience. This show represents that we too are appreciative of this style of documentation and we can tell great stories in this format. It's nice to have representation and exploration of our cultural identity, plight, and nuances in a nontraditional stereotypical way.
