Lincoln Heights: New Season This Fall
 

I have been seeing this advertised on pages in Essence for a few months, and wanted to know more about it, I look forward to seeing this.

Had no idea about it. However, I received the most clever promotion for the movie. It was a Christmas card from the family that included one of those "what happened to us this year" letters. It was VERY cute.

Like the show so far but my husband could not have gotten me to move to that house or neighborhood.

LOL. They did serious renovations in four months.
The girl from Boomerang is still sassy. :p

I believe this needs to be on a Sunday night at the same time. Monday night @ 7ET is busy time for most families (homework, dinner preparation and consumption).

Who did she play in Boomerang? I liked the show alot and I will be checking for it next Monday.

i'm watching it now, and its 12am. hopefully it will rerun like it did tonite (7pm, 10pm, 12am). i miss good ol family TV shows... i hope people watch it and it stays on the air. 7th Heaven was similar, it took years for people to seriously watch it, in the midst of all this reality-TV mumbo jumbo.

also, i'm confused as to why they move back to the hood (i understand the husband is a cop, maybe it was a political move? i missed the first couple of mnutes of the show)

Basically, that family decided to move back for a couple of reasons:

1: this is the dad's old neighborhood and wants to see it improve . . also he has some peosonal issuse he's dealing with

2: It's part of this police / community project to rehabilitate the area (he wants the family to to move in hopes to spark a positive trend where as other families may want to come and move in as well)

3: they need the space . . they were living basically on top of eachother in the opening scene . . no room 4 anything

can you tell I kinda got into the show? . . I like it, but I wonder how long it'll last . . . .

i'm going to have to catch a rerun. between wifeswap, the game, and i love new york this show completely slipped my mind!

I completely forgot about this show too. I hope it will rerun soon.

When I first saw a commercial for this show, I thought it was going to feature a Latino family. Lincoln Heights is a predominately Latino community in East Los Angeles.

Regardless, it looks like a good show and I'll check it out.

there's also a lincoln heights area in DC. before i reading this thread i just assumed it was that neighborhood. :)

The young lady with the braids played one of the students in Angela's (Halle) class. She and the classmate came over with Marcus to Angela's new job after she left Marcus.

ETA: There is also a Lincoln Heights in Ohio.

Just say that it's Lincoln Heights, Anywhere, USA!

oh...when i heard about this show, i didn't think it was like the Lincoln Heights in Cincinnati. if so, that show would look a bit more like The Wire...:(

Did anyone watch tonight? I missed the first 10 minutes. I forgot it came on. :o

Why does it seem like the dad and his partner are the only cops on the street? :confused:

I remembered at 7:01. :o

I really hated the one IA guy who was on an ep of Girlfriends way back when.

Yeah, what are the other cops doing?

FYI:
Repeat on Monday Nights @ 12AMET.

i caught it at 10PM, while randomly flipping channels.this looks like it will be a good series. I just have to get my TV times together so i can watch it regularly.

I actually like it. I have to see where they are going to take the story lines though. The obvious one that is coming is the hook up of the daughter with the "white" kid. Let see how they spin this one.

Did anyone see Lincoln Heights tonight? Is the lady from Boomerang a member of AKA? This was so small but I saw that she had an AKA mousepad and was just wondering.

you know, i peeped that too! i was like "maybe it was just P&G" but i kept that in mind. ive been searching but an AKA sistergreek may know better than i.

if it helps at all, according to google, Nicki Micheaux graduated from Univ of Colorado in 1994.

Repeat tomorrow night @ 10 ET.

That is an AKA mousepad. I see the shield at the bottom right hand corner.

You will be able to see it next week.

So they are going to move?

What was that guy's name that came to the park for the money? He was screaming like a byotch after he was shot. :rolleyes:

/\ /\ /\ /\

His name Teck Holmes and he was first seen on the Real World Hawaii. I liked the episode tonight but it really bothered me that he was allowed to be so close to the investigation as a victim. There is no way in hayle that would ever happen in a real life situation. Eddie is always in some $h!t! I want him to sit down some where. Go on desk duty or something.

When I saw the ep last week I was going who is that guy, then I realized that it was Teck Money...he he he.
Now N4L youknowdarn well that Eddie ain't hardly gone go sit at some desk somewhere even though he should....I have really gotten into this show.

Thanks to ABCFamily.com I just watched last night's episode. WOW @ the whole dynamic from beginning to end.

I figured this would be the straw that broke the family's back and prompted them to sell the house.

Always read the fine print. Basically, they are not moving.

Dang @ Cassie and her dance! You go girl!
I still think the partner is dirty. That storyline was too crazy.

The female partner. :eek: I didn't like the way she spoke her line. But, she was doing her kowabonga hong kong fooey on those skin heads. :o

ETA: All of the episodes seem to go around in a circle. Now, they are going back to Eddie's first girlfriend. These folks love to keep the kids involved in the criminal acts. Geesh!

the dude that threatened eddie in last week's ep? the thick looking dude? he looked oddly familiar...

Are you talking about the light skinned guy with the short dirty blondish dreds? . . . I think his character is called "the bishop" . . . the one who eddie tells on the phone that he doesn't owe him anything?? If so then that guy used to play "Greg" one of Toni's ex-boyfriends on the show Girlfriends

Bishop is played by Richard Williams and Greg is played by Chuma Hunter Gault, son of Charlayne Hunter-Gault who integrated the University of Georgia in the 1960s.


AKA2D, Lincoln Heights reminds me of Soul Food with the circular story telling. I also found Lund's story a bit fishy.

my mistake . . :D

There ain't no way in hell that woman would be up in my house. Send 2 undercover cops to the house to watch it but she ain't coming up in my house.:rolleyes: :mad:

Dr. McKee or McGee, your azz needs to get your money back from med school. Aww hell no! What is your problem?

Dr. Whitedude: STFU!

The Suttons need a Big Mama because those kids are ALWAYS into SOMETHING. :rolleyes: They need CONSTANT supervision.

This mohawk wearing chap needs to be shook!

Ditto X 4

Cassie would not be going ANTYWHERE with Dana!
ETA: CTFU @ "Dr. Whitedude"

Eddie's partner,perhaps?

Oh CHIT @ the watch clue. Could it be Lund? Me thinks that it is since he is off for the week being tested. And the new lieutenant said it used to happen in his precinct but then it stopped. Oh Lund, I used to like you.:( :( :(

Briggs, you done did it now.:eek:
Well at least Lund is still clean.

Continuity: same day but Lizzie wore 2 different day outfits from scene to scene.:o :(

I could not be in this family, these folks have all types of drama every week. :confused:

lol @ the Double dutch show down . .isn't there always one of those mean girls growing up??? :rolleyes:

The mom is a better woman that I could have been . . that girl and her son wouldn't have gotten past the front door

I liked this episode . . . next week looks good too. It's nice to have a show grow on you :) . .Off to prison Break :D
