I didn't get a chance but it looks interesting. I'll probably try to catch it/tape it next week. It seems like it's at least unique, which is a big deal with all the TV copycats.

I DVR'd it. I've yet to watch it, but I would rather have seen Studio 60...

Can I ask, where did the term "Guinea" come from when referring to Italians, particularly in the Boston/NY setting? Because I'd never heard that one before and then first The Departed, now this. I've heard wop for Italian and mick for Irish, but what about guinea?
ETA:
Ok, nm did my own homework... from wikipedia:
Quote:
Guinea is a highly offensive ethnic slur for someone of Italian descent in the United States.
It derives from "Guinea Negro", which came from the popular belief that Italians were part African because of their often darker skin, and possibly from the belief that the Moors once dominated parts of Italy.
|
Continuing down my learning journey:
Quote:
Guinea is a traditional name for the region of Africa that lies along the Gulf of Guinea. It stretches north through the forested, tropical, regions and ends at the Sahel.

Yay, I'm glad you liked it. It's probably just because you're Irish though.

Someone at my law school who is not my friend anymore told me she tried watching it but she doesn't like "ethnic" shows.

NBC is starting to - one of my friends actually watched Black Donnellys online last night. They don't have The Office yet though.

Amen, I refuse to watch any more NBC. Every time my favorite show is on NBC it gets cancelled.
