UPN and WB to merge

[Bolt]

Well, mainly my disdain is aimed at Buffy, since I haven't seen much Angel (because it was an offshoot of Buffy, and Buffy is almost as bad for me as U2), but I hate Sarah Michelle Gellar and I also hate the semi-romantic young-vampire genre, complete with yuppie charisma and endless unfunny WB humor (like the way they always have something "witty" to say and usually talk really goddamn fast).

The only thing Whedon ever did that wasn't total suck was Firefly. Everything else...including his horrific Astonishing X-Men run....utter crap.

As for this? I honestly don't care. I don't have either of these channels, plus their shows stopped being good since the year 2000 or so.

I think you'd like Angel and Firefly, but I could be wrong. They're certainly not Buffy.

total bullshit. just another way to make Television all white.

I saw the trailer for that Firefly movie and it made me laugh.

"Well.... you can't!"

Dude, what're you talking about? Everything on TV these days is either black, ghetto, or both. I say **** the ghetto, let's get Kung Fu resyndicated.

 

[VengeanceGOD]

Yeah, the series is a lot like that. Hang on, I'll come on and send you some eps.

I don't know what channels you're watching, but I've not seen a black TV show outside of UPN and BET in awhile. WB USED to have black comedies back when they didn't SUCK, but now they're all whitebread. I see the point you're trying to make, but its just another myth. (And wtf is black AND ghetto? No such thing. Its either one or the other.)

TV's either all ghetto or it's all punk...the good stuff is hard to find.

As for Smackdown, it's going to be on the new channel as well.

Huh? Ghetto doesn't always have to refer to black people. There are plenty of pathetic ghetto white people walkin' round holdin' their britches up with one hand and flashin' gang signs with the other.

Thank you for understanding my point, Sage. :buttrock: And I'm sick of the whole debate "there never be another FPOB-A, Martin or the Cosby Show" So what do you call Girlfriends and My Wife and Kids, then? There both stunning while NBC series have no multicultural aspects whatsoever.
