I love Michael Strahan, but I’m not sure about this sitcom. Who is T-pain supposed to be? Lenny from Good Times. He already looks a hot mess, and this get up he got on adds insult to injury…good night!

……well I was already on the fence about this tv show…but this just sealed the deal.
……why in the HELL is T-pain on this show.

……..T-Pain makes my bowels move..ughhhh. He is the epitome of foolishness

Think I seen that dude in the chair (or wheelchair) on the game before….hmm T-pain probably would be good. He has some funny videos on youtube. He just has to remain that type of character.

Ummm…Ewwww! This show looks stoopid just from this picture. I don’t see an ounce of acting talent, originality or creativity in this group nothing but a good recipe for coonery. I am sure Obama hating republicans will enjoy the setback in black culture! I’ll pass!

Hot mess.
The ugliest hot mess ive ever seen in my life.
He look like a bear.
Michael Strahan, and Daryl “Chill” Mitchell, on the other hand look great.

Good luck on the SHOW !

Will he break out in song at various points of the show?…in autotune? theme song will most likely be autotune…I can see a round up of popular guest artists, actors and models in a sorry attempt to make up for lack of comedic content…. I predict a fail. Him poppin and lockin in and out of scenes and sh*t….

@1 u haven’t heard of the show 4 3 reasons:

Reason 1: it’s an all AFRICAN AMERICAN and POSITIVE show they hardly EVER promote on FOX, The only reason i know about the show is b/c Michael Strahan was on The Wendy Williams promoting it.

Reason 2: they gave them a crappy time Slot, Fridays @ 8…ummm HELLLLLO Friday is a night most ppl chose to go out and are hardly home.

Reason 3: and this is being honest, its not a very interesting show…if it makes through 1 full season it will surprise me.

So with that being said im sure if this is a good move 4 T-Pain.

In order for FOX or any other Mainstream network u need 2 have useless African American shows like The Cleveland Show to get promotion…I’m not gonna lie Cleveland show is my joint :-)

@12, I miss The Game too! I sure hope they can get another season.

I haven’t watched this yet, but with T-Pain and Kim Kardashian on, I might have to pass.

But The Cleveland Show is my junk.

I’ve never heard of this show before .. wonder how long it will last.
Michael Strahan really needs to close up that space, other than that he’s a cutie!
And yeah I swear Daryl was that wheelchair guy from The Game? - still mad they cancelled the show, always watchin’ the re-runs on BET, it’s like the only show I watch on that channel.

Hope it doesn’t bomb though .. funny or not.

BEEN PRISSY SINCE1908,

I agree that’s a horrible time slot they gave them, I want to watch it to see how it is but I don’t even think I’m going to be home tomorrow at 8 - I’m like never home on Fridays at 8 ..

this show is alright, i’ve watched it a couple of times. I miss the game. I like the Clevland show. I like meet the Browns better than House of Payne. I actually stopped watching House of Payne. It’s just not funny to me. the only funny character in the house of payne is the one who plays the father.

@15

C! u made my point right there lol

@8 and 12

I read some where BET was in the middle of negotitations to try and bring back the show, that’s y they’ve been showing the previous seasons of The Game religiously. The Game would have their 4th and furture seaons on BET, but that was months ago and I haven’t heard anything since, I’m not sure if thats still the case, but I sure hope it is!

….the first episode of this sitcom pulled in “less than dismal” ratings. I certainly don’t
….expect T-Pain’s apperance will make them any better.

….AND #16…DEAD ASS WRONG…LOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!

Ummm looks like it’s gonna be similar to “Malcom & Eddie.” Did they even promote this show?

22.

hahahhahaa

Thursday, October 8, 2009 /

Friday’s at 8 aren’t bad time slots if the show is good. TGIF used to start @ 8 and everybody used to watch it. Kids will watch if it’s funny. They just have to promote it.

@6, 8, 4

IT’S OBIVIOUS YOU DO NOT REALIZE HOW IGNORNAT YOU SOUND?

#1, WHY WHEN IT’S ANYTHING BLACK, SOMEONE’S ALWAYS BRINGING OBAMA IN IT?!

#2, IF YOU’VE NEVER WATCHED THE SHOW, HOW AND WHY WOULD YOU JUDGE IT?!

#3, THAT’S WHY BLACK ACTORS IN HOLLYWOOD NEVER GET THE RECOGNITION THEY DESERVE AND NEED BECAUSE BLACK PEOPLE SUCH AS YOURSELF. SOMEONE WHO IS SO QUICK TO JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER AND SHOW NO SUPPORT FOR THEIR EFFORTS.

THIS IS A ALL BLACK CAST ON NATIONAL TV FOR THE FRIST TIME SINCE FOREVER! INSTEAD OF YOU TAKING THE TIME TO GIVE THE SHOW A CHANCE YOU DISPLAY YOUR IGNORANCE AND JUDGE A SITCOM BY A PICTURE? BLACK PEOPLE WILL REMAIN THE UNDERDOG IN THIS WHITE MANS WORLD BECAUSE OF COONS LIKE YOUSELF. I BET YOU WON’T GIVE WATCHING THE SOPRANO’S OR SEX IN THE CITY A SECOND THOUGHT BEFORE TUNING IN. SMDH

BLACK PEOPLE WAAAAAAAAAAKE UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why are these shows so BAD??????

With T-Pain and Monique the Black race keeps going backwards.

That BET Monique show is a Travesty.

T-Pain as a “guest star” proves this show does not have much going on.

ZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzz.

—I read the synopsis of this show in Essence Magazine, it seemed like a good story
—line. I’ll check it out.

—Lol at whoever said this show lacked “acting talent”, yet in the same breath praise
—”The Game”. That bullshyt show didn’t have an ounce of talented actors, nor plots!
—I see a bunch of disgruntled actors from the game up and thru this blog! Lmao

I SO AGREE! I CHECKED OUT MO’NIQUE’S SHOW LAST NIGHT (WELL TRIED AT LEAST) AND GAGGED DURING THE FIRST 30 SECONDS. BET NEEDS TO BE SHUT DOWN, BLACK PEOPLE DON’T OWN OR RUN THIS CHANNEL AND IT’S OBVIOUS. WATCHED FOR ABOUT 2 MINTUES AND HAD TO TUNR THE CHANNEL.

House of Pain does not have an all African-American cast,there is a white actor and a latino actress who play fireman on the series.

House of Payne is the driest show I have ever seen.
I watch it when there is absolutely nothing else on TV and as many episodes as I’ve seen, I’ve only laughed 3 times.

And for it to be a #1 show - like who’s watching it? It’s not funny at all and the uncle/dad is so unbelievably annoying. I really have no idea why I watch the show but I do.

The whole drama with CJ, his kids, and their druggy mama was annoying. So surprised that it’s a “Tyler Perry show” because his movies are actually funny, I don’t know what went wrong.

SO HOPEFULLY “Brothers” will be a much better show.

ALSO, The Game does NOT have bad acting in it!
Love that show, there’s a few episodes where no matter HOW many times I’ve watched it, I laugh just as hard as I did the first time. Even though I know the parts coming and wait for it I still find some episodes/lines so funny. The only ‘annoying/bad’ part about The Game was Melanie sometimes, she overreacted so many times when it came to Derwin that I wanted to slap her.

Just because a show consists of an all Black cast is NOT a good enough reason (to ME) to watch it. I will watch a show that is interesting, well thought-out and has some substance (which is why I usually find myself tuning in to the Discovery Channel or something with similar programming). These people hardly need OUR money - they are in Hollywood making it while we sit in our respective locations trying to get by.

I too tried to watch the Mo’Nique show on BET and it was just too much. She is way over the top with all of the screaming and hollering and “ooh baby, sugar, honey-pie, crap”. She looks great with the weight loss I must say.

Maybe I’m being too judgemental, but this is another stereotypical show to me. Two black men with no money staying at home with their parents, I just can’t get with this.

#28, I agree. Mo’nique does nothing but scream through the whole show. That is so unnecessary.

T-PAIN`S MANAGER

Thursday, October 8, 2009 /

This is T-Pain`s manager,please don`t go too hard on my boy,T-Pain. I was the one that advised him to start acting, One night T-Pain and myself, was at a strip club,we was both high off the Patron and I figured if Marlon Wayans can get acting jobs, anybody can act. I had just got done putting some dollar bills in this stripper`s thong when the idea came to me to get some acting gigs for T-Pain,in the meantime, look out for his new single called,Death of the 40 year old Rappers ! It`s straight firrrrrrrrrrre !

This show is really funny. I saw the season premiere (back to back episodes). really nice show. I just hope it isnt cancelled.

TPAIN crazy ass would play a part such as a pimp or a hustle man of some sort. I am so sick of blacks being portrayed like that on television. Its 2009, start hiring white folks to take on those roles, they hustle in the streets & are pimps also.

If I was Michael Strahan I wouldnt have even done this show if they were going to air it on Fridays. There hasnt been a decent black sitcom on since the Parkers SMH. Anyways it sounds like a funny show.
