Too Cool For Cardi wow, I didn’t even remember saying this until your comment! I’m so happy to still be as big of a fan of Issa and her art just as I was for ABG! ♥️
Funny as s**t. Watching this at work about to get in BIG trouble for laughing at y'all. OMG I love the web series and I love Insecure! That dag on baby voice Darius OMG lolololol
Just realized this video lasts an hour! Didn't know you could do that on UA-cam! Anyway I'm enjoying it so far and it makes me want to be creative and do something as a Black Woman with my life. Thank y'all!
I used to see these episodes pop on the side all the time when watching vids and never got into this series....finally watched this past week and completely addicted! Looovvve this show! Even though I could definitely see this on HBO or Comedy Central I hope it stays on UA-cam so they can maintain creative control. Looking forward to many more seasons of this show so I hope everyone spreads the word and shows the love! : ) And this is off-topic, I think the moderator did a great job hosting
Had no clue Tracy Oliver was a SC native! Awesome... Again, I'm at work sneaking in my ABG time. I get a full hour of clips and cast/creative team!! I'm sure you guys hear this millions of times over, but I feel that J and I are kindred spirits. I'm the quintessential awkward Black girl! So this series is the best thing goin...Love it!!
i love it!! luv ABG i have to actively remind myself that fred, nina and J aren't my buddies, cuz i be gettin all hype when i c them in interviews like ooooo there go my buddy!!
wow, just happened to come across your show accidentally...needless to say Ive just sat here and watched them all b2b..loved every episode...keep it up!
I'm glad you didn't have enough money for an animated series because you truly birthed a new found comedic approach for the originality that was not in-placed on screen for people of color. Things always work out like they are suppose to! :) Thanks for your work!!!!!
This show is interesting to relate to, amazing, and inspiring in so many ways. I am grateful for this group of people who brought this show to life. Finally, something that's better than majority of these TV shows that are on nowadays. Thank you, ABG cast.
Issa and Nina, I thank you so much for creating such a brilliant show. I see a lot of myself in Issa. Awkward, but naturally charming and witty. Lol. I love the F word, btw. And everyone who watches this show should at least check it out. Keep up the good work. #teamundecided.
just a word to tracy oliver ... yes you are probably the most hated character on ABG but you gotta know that when someone is disliked that much it means they are playing their role to the 9's. this interview showed a different side of u - that ur actually QUITE far from Nina - and for ppl to "hate" u as much as they do, its a testament to your acting skills. keep doing what ur doing.
david stanley You know she has a new show called Insecure on HBO right? They just finished season 1 not to long ago and it was taken up for another season.
We can love ABG and still wish it were better. Calling out that stuff isn't saying we hate it, its saying we love it and wish it would make an attempt to not offend us in that unthinking fashion. Most of the jokes on the show are anti oppression. Meaning, the jokes typically reverse the systems of power and oppression, rather than *reinforcing* them. That's dope, they should continue to do that.
Is its weird to celebrate your birthday with an alcoholic beverage and ABG marathon on Jan 12? Because that sounds pretty darn tempting, as seeing that my birthday is on a Thursday and the next video premiers on the same day!
Very true. Issa& co should not have backed down on that issue either if they are not going to back down on any of the others. I think Mary Clarence's character for example is funny at times but also a bit cynically written.Not all Christians are hypocrites.But since they are taking a pop at every1 it is to be expected. To single out that word -when so many other social groups are more heavily parodied in the show-seems extreme to me. I think Issa got her own back with ep 1 series 2 tho' ;-)
I WOULD LOOOOOVVVVEEEEE TO SEE THIS AS AN HBO SERIES!!
Nijah Lastrapes Wow! And it happened....
You got your wish
Too Cool For Cardi wow, I didn’t even remember saying this until your comment! I’m so happy to still be as big of a fan of Issa and her art just as I was for ABG! ♥️
this aged well
You wish success on her and now I'm wishing success on you too. Amen!
Issa is just naturally funny and beautiful
This is the great thing about you tube, I binged watched ABG and love it. Glad to see this hard work paid off for HBO 'Insecure'....continued success.
From youtube to HBO! So inspiring!
So happy for Issa!!! Started at the bottom and she's at the top! Love ABG and Insecure!
I dont think she started at the bottom her dad was cashed up and she went to college. so she was middle class background
I love that character, Darius. His character is just so funny in a very fresh way. Kudos, Issa. Love the series.
Issa has nice skin and complexion
Yes, I think she is quite beautiful.
Love ABG. It was great to hear from some of the cast. 😘👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 and Camille, you're amazing too!!
Darius cracks me up!
Started from the bottom , love this woman
Funny as s**t. Watching this at work about to get in BIG trouble for laughing at y'all. OMG I love the web series and I love Insecure! That dag on baby voice Darius OMG lolololol
love u Issa you're so real, the humor inside of you is oh so natural I have been watching you since day 1 keep it coming. Love Zetta
Did anyone else think Issa was trying not to crack up during the introduction? The host Camille seems like she could be a character on the show.
Just realized this video lasts an hour! Didn't know you could do that on UA-cam! Anyway I'm enjoying it so far and it makes me want to be creative and do something as a Black Woman with my life. Thank y'all!

Issa and the team are simply amazing. ABG is a prime example of how opportunity and raw talent create gold. Oh and by the way, #TeamFred!
That hour went by fast! Loved it!
PLEASE don't ever stop making AGB
The Dance is my favorite episode! I'm glad they chose this one for the showing!
They were so nervous at the begining =]
I had no idea this show existed, but thaks solely to this video, I'll check a couple of episodes out.
This was really nice. It makes me like them even more. The cast is really smart, creative, and talented.
I looove the bloopers! Thanks for this video, I like seeing the behind the scenes part of it too.
"We walked into the wrong funeral LOL"
I love her series. Please continue the project!!!!
Agreed. Sometimes the best humor has no filter.
This is so inspiring. Thanks for posting!

Absolutely loved this mini series! Don't give up and you are all amazing!
T-word….? So confusing.
I love you Issa!!!! 11years and you’re still so relevant. You are amazing beyond words @hooraemedia
Transformers in disguise
i love what Madison said that's so true..."if only" excuse ..think about what you do have ..
Much appreciated thanks!!!
this was a great interview! I love watching the show evolve and get so successful! keep it up cast and crew
I love this! The only thing is what's up with @Google's sound? Hope the ABG crew got an apology.
Omg!! Episode 12 comes out on my birthday!! Aww it feels like a bday gift from Issa xD
we love you Nina
That freestyle was Tight Issa!!!!!! lol
This was an amazing interview ! I will say every single time that Ice Cube song come on I want to get down like J
That impromptu rap performance was good. I like it.
OMG!! I love this show and I think Issa is too funny. I wish I could act a be a part of any of her productions
I love this show and Issa Rae is so beautiful and creative!
You should be on TV. You all are so funny!
ISSA RAE >>
Love you so much, Issa booh ❤️❤️❤️
love this and it represent all races in a great light...and im a awkward black girl..geeks rules
Learning how to build from Issa in November 2023
I wish Issa was my older sister. I wouldn't mind at all. I love her she is hilarious & her awkwardness is sooooooo funny !
Love the series....much respect!
Is it just me or Issa really does have a great beautiful smile?
i watch the whole hour and enjoyed it
Nina you are a very talented actress
I'm team fred!!!! Lol but I wouldn't be mad if she chose white jay. Can't wait for the finale. Great interview.
THERE ARE MORE INTERVIEWS OF ISSA RAE THAN THERE ARE ACTUAL EPISODES OF AWKWARD BLACK GIRL
david stanley You know she has a new show called Insecure on HBO right? They just finished season 1 not to long ago and it was taken up for another season.
david stanley...And?
Oh, Fred...I mean, Madison...I'll walk with you on the beach

oh yeah ithink she's a great actor! Very talented!
Great panel!
i only come back & watch this for the bloopers!
Is its weird to celebrate your birthday with an alcoholic beverage and ABG marathon on Jan 12? Because that sounds pretty darn tempting, as seeing that my birthday is on a Thursday and the next video premiers on the same day!
STILL MY FAV EPISODE!
Issa rae is inspiring
If you don't like it, why watch the videos? She's not doing it to offend someone, and it's her show, she can do as she pleases.
=O Oh my gosh! I need that Black Nerds Unite shirt in my life!
Oh, OK. Thank you!
Me too! It would get great ratings!
AWESOME!
loved it!.......Team White Jay all day!!!!
This was great! I am TeamFred all day!! It's all good Madison lol

Ok were do I get the Black nerds unite T shirts!!??
OMG!! I have to have a black nerd shirt!!
When is Issae going to do a stand up? She seems great at it.
J is awesome...
i love this show.....
I totally agree with you!
I Fucking Love Her
Lol love these guys!!!
AMEN!! the gay police be trying to do the MOST though UGH!! *rolls eyes*
That would be cool to have it on something like FX because mostly everyone gets that channel without a monthly subscription...
I love Isa
Indeed the alleged offensiveness of that word is news to me too. I have heard it used by gay people myself in a non-ironic way.
OMG WHITE JAY
