TV ROUNDUP: CHANCE & REAL GET THEIR OWN SHOW / DAVID ALAN GRIER’S NEW SHOW
Monday, October 6, 2008

Bachelor brothers Kamal “Chance” Givens and Ahmad “Real” Givens may not have been lucky in love on “I Love New York” but now they will both get a second chance with “Real Chance of Love” premiering October 20 at 9:00 PM ET/PT.
The tables have turned for these horse-breeding, music-producing entertainer brothers known as the “Stallionaires.” Now, Real and Chance are the ones in control and this time it’ll be a gamble for 17 young ladies who will move into their ranch house to fight for their hearts.
DAVID ALAN GRIER’S NEW SHOW
David Alan Grier is back with a new show on Comedy Central. Here’s how the series is described (as mentioned in a press release):
“Chocolate News will take on a variety of contemporary topics from a decidedly African-American perspective and everyone and everything is fair game. The series stars David Alan Grier who, in addition to serving as the acerbic, all-knowing, in-studio host, will also portray multiple characters within the series’ investigative reports, which will be presented by a cast of three correspondents.”
I saw a few clips from the show and it looks kinda funny, so I may check it out. Comedy Central has been looking hard for someone to replace Dave Chappelle, but we all know that isn’t going to happen.
Chocolate News premieres on Comedy Central on Wednesday, October 15, 2008 at 10:30 p.m. Peep some video clips here..

So I guess now that BET is trying (I use that term loosely) to step up there game throw some news in the mix and has some edutainment (i.e. The Truth) going on after all the crticism… VH1 is stepping up to carry the hotassghettoomess torch … I just want to say thanks VH1 I was missing my stereotypical and expoitative portrayals of blacks in the media .

VH1 = garbage.
No more reality “move-into-a-rented-house-and-
make-the-biggest-fool-of-myself-so-i-can-have-my-own-show-next”
BS television programs.
Why would any grown black man still rock curls.
Cut that mess off, find a real job, go to church and get saved.
People… we have got to stop supporting this.

———What type of horse stable did these dudes grow up in? Usually cats like that
———have a rougher spirit. Them niggas are goin’ bareback but it ain’t on a damn
———horse. Does this cat “Chance” have an S-Curl Mohawk? What are the chances
———of having two hom*sexual sons? “Real” looks like Sanaa Lathan. I can’t take
———too much more of this sh*t lol. Any black woman that deals with these dudes
———has a “Real” good “Chance” of getting AIDS.

———That sh*t is ridiculous. Something must have happened to them as children.
———They look like the damn Pointer sisters in that link. Cats have on eyeliner,
———smdh. Plus it looks like their into some type of satanic worship which would
———explain why they continue to get put on tv. That chain that “Real” has on with
———the “peace sign” is actually an upside down cross broken downwards. That’s
———where the origin of the piece emblem goes back to.

I am not really looking forward to either of these shows. Real and Chance’s show will probably be another extension of the depiction of black females as scanty, hot in the pants and “ghetto”. Previews of David Alan Grier’s show have been utterly disappointing .. at least to me. It’s seems to be more making fun of black people under the guise of comic relief with no significant political commentary/critique. He’s Again, from the previews I’ve seen, the show just seems to be taking cheap shots at black people. This is pathetic! Our image is under attack and the sad thing about it is that white media is promoting it and black actors/comedians are complicit in it. Nothing new, right? Reminds me of black face and minstrel shows. Just my take on it.

———-Read the comments of the women on the link, lol. Talkin’ about, “Real you
———-my king!!”, smh. Sh*t is sad sad sad. It’s a sad day for the black man boy.
———-I’m not even going to go into the “good hair” comments. More negro nonsense.
———-There’s somethin’ rotten in Denmark when you raised three gay sons.
———-Somethin’ went amiss. If they’re not hom*sexual, I apologize but if they’re not,
———-they do a damn good impersonation.

More buffonery to exploit the black female and reinforce the negative Black male stereotypical image of “pimpery pays.” I’m surprised that with all the implications of this “pimpology” about to be sold & told, that you ladies would have more to say than to just comment on the texture of these sissies hair! “hh, he mus have indian in his family huh…?” Nope! Dat nigga ain’t got no “perm” it’s just ah “temporary.” 36months in jail will turn dat shit into an afro and he’d be somebody’s beeyaach fa sho!

Wow that is going to be some tomfoolary at it’s finest. I didn’t watch FOL at all. I watched parts of the first season of ILNY and the only reason i watched that was a blogger named Ron Mexico use to blog about it all the time and it was hilarious to read and i just couldn’t believe it so I had to see it myself. lol I don’t kno if I can watch the “stallionaires” but curiousity might draw me to it.
As for chocolate news It doesnt seem that funny too me, it seems like it might be trying too hard. Or maybe thats just Grier…..

@judah- shut the fuck up you homophobic motherfucker. i mean damn, EVERY SINGLE TIME the word homosexual is mentioned you have to pop up with something unintelligent and hateful to say. why do gay people scare you so much? is it because you’re gay too and you’re just trying to deflect attention away from yourself. you’re so transparent, you ignorant prejudiced internet thug. i bet you wish your punk ass had the “balls’ to say what you say online to someone’s face.
YOU KNOW YOU’RE GAY. WHY DON’T YOU JUST ADMIT IT.
