Hugeleys show was racist as fuck looking back on it now, especially against whites, asians and latin americans every single one on the show was some stereotype through I did find it surprising the led was a republican and the show was more conservative than other black sitcoms I watched Steve Harvey show was alright but kinda ruined itself when it became less about them being teachers and more about their will they won't they romance plots.

Hell, they even stole shows like Living Single and made them into Friends. <cite>lolife67 posted [p:955917747] in We used to...

Most modern sitcoms suck, probably because they're not being written by comedians anymore. <cite>sabrestorm posted [p:955918009] in We used to...

Hugeleys show was racist as fuck looking back on it now, especially against whites, asians and latin americans every single one on the show was some stereotype Glad I'm not the only one who thought that.
