Black Folks - Stop Being Cheap And Lazy! Stop Watching BET To Get Your Black Sitcom Fix And Buy The Damn DVDs!
Black folks, I love ya, but if one more person comments that they got "caught up" watching the BET Awards last night because they were watching one of the endless re-runs of A Different World, I'm really going to blow a gasket. Stop supporting BET and support those corny sitcoms ya'll are hooked on by buying the series DVDs!
A Different World, The Cosby Show, What's Happening!, Good Times, Sanford and Son, Girlfriends, Living Single, Martin, 227, Gimmie A Break, The Jeffersons, That's My Mama, Different Strokes, The Fresh Prince Of Bel Air, The Jamie Foxx Show, House of Payne, Everybody Hates Chris, The Bernie Mac Show, even Amos and Andy are all available in some capacity on DVD!
Black folks whine all the time about not getting the same opportunities as white folks. The entire ten years of Friends was released all at once. Why, because they knew white folks would by the DVDs. Black sitcoms are released one season at a time based on sales. This is simple logic. If ya'll buy the DVDs up, the movie companies have a reason to release the next season of the series on DVD. Stop being cheap and lazy!
Considering how long Moesha, Hanging With Mr. Cooper, Family Matters, Half and Half and The Parkers ran on the air, why aren't these shows available on DVD? Just asking.
And P.S. - If you make over 35K a year and have no significant bills, i.e. students loans or house note and can't afford to buy a $20-35 dollar DVD set once a month, you are mis-managing your money and you need a second job!
