A Reminder!!!!! (Wayne Brady to host Miss America Pageant)

AKAtude · #1 08-08-2001, 01:27 PM

I just wanted to remind everyone that "The Wayne Brady Show" premieres tonight at 8:00pm EST on ABC. If you have ever seen "Whose Line Is It Anyway", Wayne Brady is the black comedian. Hopefully, his show will do well.

Soror, Thanks for posting this reminder! I love him...he is too funny on "Whose line is it?"

Hopefully, I won't miss it. I'll listen to it, since my back is always to my TV. I am always WATCHING my monitor.

U 2!?!?!

It looks like it's going to be similar to the Flip Wilson show.

Wayne who???

AKA2D '91 · #7 08-08-2001, 08:34 PM

Okay, he can sing.

I guess ABC is trying to put more shows with "us" on the air. I guess the NAACP will be proud.

I DID laugh at "Chris Rock as Annie".

I am enjoying it as well. I was cracking up on the ANNE song.

*****
The 2nd ep was hilarious with their RESTAURANT skit especially the Little Richard and Cartman impersonations.

Those were my favorites, too.

I also enjoyed the look on his grandmother's face when he did his impression of her. The song with Brian McKnight and the guy from N'Sync was also funny.

She was just blushing. I'm sure she was/is very proud of her grandbaby.

Soror, what "us" were you referring to? Oh! You mean Wayne and the entire white cast?

Although I think one of the dancers was black too. (maybe)

I too, am disappointed with the show. Although, I must admit that the 2nd half was somewhat funny. I will give it one more try and will then just watch him on Whose Line.

It wasn't until the 2nd episode that I saw the "black" dancer. I mean if you blinked you wouldn't be able to tell that she was black. I don't think they had her on the FIRST episode.

Girl, it's a time!

Oh, but you know ABC will say, we gave HIM his OWN show. No one said that the ENTIRE cast had to be made up by minorities.

You know, you asked for more, so we're giving it to ya attitude!

It was "ok", but not something that I'll make it a point to watch weekly, like Soul Food. It seems a bit like a "token" black show for the big TV networks. They allow a black person to have a show but make sure that it's not too "black". His clothes were horrible - pants were WWWAAAYYY to tight, material to shiny, etc. When he did that "latin" song, I just kind of lost interest.
