I spent enough time as a kid around Hollywood to know that everything that gets filmed does not necessarily go on the air or appear in a theatre.

Censoring Roseanne was a craven move to satisfy the Democrats’ base.

Keyna Barris marinates in a tub of racism. That is his essence. He has the nerve to call Roseanne Barr ‘A Monster!”
just for making one joke some declared was non-PC.
Keyna does not seem to value thinking for himself.
He reminds me of Spike Lee. Just as insular, envious and hateful of anyone different than he.

I’ve watched it. Some episodes are actually very funny, and skewer some stereotypes. But I’m not watching any episode that glorifies the kneelers.

Blackish was never great but watchable in its first season, then it got preachy and and all SJW and that was that.

Yup. Just ask Bruce Willis, Nic Cage and Seagal. I know firsthand why those leftards at AMC Theaters try their best to stifle Willis.

Don’t worry. Now they’re pushing a new show about some White People who move into an all Black neighborhood. The stereotypes from the Commercial speak for themselves.

Never watched it. Just the previews were sucky in my opinion.

Barris revealed that his last straw with ABC was the network's shelving -- and as the magazine adds, all but erasing from existence, with scripts and copies nowhere to be found -- "Please, Baby, Please," a "Black-ish" episode that included news footage of NFL players protesting, Charlottesville and Trump (which had been scheduled to air on February 27). The network jettisoned the episode reportedly because executives "feared they'd be alienating the very population they'd tried so hard to court."

Apparently Mr Barris doesn't realize that ABC is in business. To make money. And for that it needs to attract viewers. It doesn't air shows to make political statements (although many times the networks do).

So, basically, what he is saying is that Hollywood/ABC is out of touch with mainstream America.

I have not noticed a rush to alter TV programming to cater to red state-ers.

I doubt many Trump supporters have watched the program, let alone given any thought to unaired episodes.

Yep. Anything with “Black” in the
title is guaranteed to raise one’s
suspicions. I don’t care if you’re
yellow, brown, black, red, or any
other color under the rainbow.
Treat me with respect and it’s
reciprocated. Come at me with a chip
on your shoulder, and I’ll come back
at you with a log on mine.

Black-ish premiered with 11 million viewers and went on a steady decline over 4 seasons to just 4 million viewers. For a network show, that is weak. And he wonders why it was canceled. No talent hack overrates himself.
