I never watched one episode of the Keisha Cole thing but I heard a lot about her moms and how the chick was straight bananas up on there.  Nah. I can't have my moms acting a bigger fool than me.  No way.  And on TV no less.  That's bad.

 I once heard a white comedian say in his act that the reason that no major black characters were on Happy Days was because they would have to change the title to Mondays, cause everyboday hates Mondays.

Ro,

You got me to thinking about all the old movie classics.  I used to grab up these videos...old VHS whenever I would see a black person featured in them. its a shame that a lot of ours were black exploitation but I was just proud to see some of our folks working back then....on the screen. I just googled and found a list with a lot of my favorites......marked with an *

Ok I didn't read everyone's comments so if I am repeating myself then I apologize.

I have to say I care (at least about this show) I don't like all reality t.v. but I have been following this family since the babies were well babies. I have strong feelings about this whole scenario. I watched the whole show yesterday all the while texting my cousins who were also watching at the same time. The ratings for this show was already high and and I am sure they are through the roof after the latest scandal. So obviously someone must care.

LMAO.  I'm with you.  How gives a good hot damn about them. Hell I got real problems to deal with thanks to the Governator and his budget cuts.
