All of these. I don't know if "Set It Off" should be mentioned. I love that movie.

Set it off was in the hood, and a few of those mentioned above were Romantic Comedies and don't count.

so....we're being super strict with that rule then...no comedies, so nothing where the protaganist is still alive (or at least no where near as happy as he was) at the end, then?


And not set in "the hood"

Crooklyn, that would be it, wouldn't it?

as far as tv......the burning sands, if that counts.

I think you might be mixed up with "The Women's Murder Club" which was based on a series of books. It starred Angie Harmon.

The #1 Ladies Detective Agency was the first of a series of books. It is currently being made into a film.

The spouse says Trois. I think a friend of mine who is obsessed with B movies could names lots of Black movies that are of the low budget persuasion .. lol

But I do think 10-13 constitutes a full season these days!

Sen I thought Generations was a soap, I remember the name but nothing about who was in it or what is was about... Does it air on soapnet?

No...I know what I'm talking about. Believe me my s/o made a habit of watching it. It was on HBO last year starring Jill Scott.

^^^DS is right, #1 LDA is a TV series with Jill Scott and Anika Noni Rose.


Soul Food - the movie

Soul Food - the series

They had their funny moments but definitely weren't comedies.
