    They hate his work so much. Tyler perry keeping his work from playing behind the scenes. Networks canceling his shows dispite the numbers. And now we’re missing star actors 😢. R.I.P Charlie murphey, John witherspoon, and Eddy asner.

    I thought Black Jesus was hilarious. It wasn’t as good as The Boondocks but how many shows can you really compare to The Boondocks? Yes they had the same writer but it was a totally different concept. I thought it still retained a lot of the comedy and wittiness you would love from The Boondocks but to Vlad’s point, there’s only so much you can do with a live action show. But I thought Black Jesus was pretty good for what it was

    So is it Aaron's ego, O.C.D, A.D.D, A to Z that got in the way 😆. He's gotta grow tf up if that's what it is. He worked this man like a dog and then wanted to pigeonhole him 🤨. C'mon Aaron what part of the game is that?

      @liquidladdy 7 місяців тому

      ​@@crnkmnky In what reality did Aaron treat Reggie unfairly? Reggie thought he knew what was best for the longevity of the Boondocks whilst running easily one of the most oversaturated, downright unfunny channels on network television (B.E.T.). I do agree that cutting off Carl and having the show sit in limbo when great comedians are passing away is simply tragic.
