Have you noticed the new hour-long comedy block on NBC this summer. It’s hard to miss. It was an hour of “Mr Robinson” for the first three weeks and now it is an hour of “The Carmichael Show” for another three weeks. These two shows are the only three shows on NBC with minority leads unless you count the Voice or professional sports. It is not that often that you hear of a show airing back to back in this manner. The original plan was to air each show back to back for 6 weeks. NBC it seemed, didn’t trust the quality of either show and decided to burn off the two series.
I will be the first to admit that the quality o
black comedy. Wait do they hate black comedy because they are burning off the two series or do they hate black comedy because they didn’t put in the resources necessary to make the shows succeed.
You tell me, what do you think about the each show & what do you think about NBC?
