When I was growing up, the BBC used to broadcast the Black and White Minstrel Show My aesthetic sensibilities were insufficiently developed to recognise it for the rubbish it truly was. Today, of course, its violation of the aesthetic would be pale in comparison to its strident political incorrectness; the producers would count their blessings if they were merely lynched. So I find it quite strange that it has been resuscitated for ...

A few days ago Lisa Warren wrote a piece for the Huffington Post, regarding the toppling of black role models. The two prominent men she compared are President Barack Obama and golfer, Tiger Woods. Warren says “In the past few weeks, the two most famous and arguably most successful black men in America have taken a huge fall. It has become clear that both pro golfer Tiger Woods, just named Athlete of the Year by the Associated Press, ...

The Congressional Black Caucus started doing a little shoving on their end in regards to President Obama this month. To kick of December they started in on demanding to know what the President was going to do about economy and how it has decimated a sizable chunk of the black middle class (and further impoverished blacks who were already struggling). From the Atlanta Journal-Constitution : Tension between the 42-member black ...

Through a set of ingeniously concocted experiments, reported Friday in the journal Science, researchers show that white characters in television series display far more negative body language toward their black peers than to members of their own race. The bias conveyed by these body clues is not only recognized ...

Top TV Stories of 2009: The return of the sitcom
10 hours ago ago from TV Squad
I'm always amazed at how people haven't learned from TV history. Back in the early eighties, everyone and his mother was saying that comedy was dead, mainly because of then-cutting-edge dramas like Hill Street Blues were dominating the air, while the best in comedy that the networks could come up was crap like Pink Lady and Jeff . Then The Cosby Show, Cheers, Family Ties, and Night Court came around, and all of a sudden comedy was back. So ...

What is a best and worst list anyway? Is it truly a list of the best shows of the year and the worst shows of the year based on quality alone or do we have personal "favorites" in there too? Even if you watch 10 hours of TV a day there's no way that any TV critic can watch every single show, so there might be some gaps in what one person considers the "best and worst" and what another person has on their list. Here are my picks. The Best ...

Never mind Barack Obama's Audacity of Hope. It's the audacity of the banks that takes your breath away. Mean old Mr. Potter in "It's a Wonderful Life" seems like Father Christmas by comparison. A recent report that Citigroup and Goldman Sachs may have received preferential treatment getting doses of the swine flu vaccine was enough to give Ebenezer Scrooge the yips. Then came news that in order for us to get back the taxpayer bailout money ...
