BM/WW IR sightings on TV

Karen cliche plays the friend he ends up with. If you saw tge saw mutant x back in the day played Lexa.


Undressed was a great show way ahead of its time it explored all aspects of sex didnt really shy away from anything. Usually featuring a high-school, college, and early 20s storyline. At was an anthology series so the entire arc played out over 3 episodes. Unfortunately though it seems the show is lost media. You can find episodes here and there on YouTube but the complete series is impossible to find, which sucks because black guy white women featured in a number of stories, also unsurprisingly most of them featured Canadian actors. I did some spring cleaning and came across some old dvds I had completely forgotten about. I had taped some of the episodes and storyline I found interesting and then later put them on DVD. Which is why I went searching for more video.

A number of actors actually got their starts on the show the mandalorian himself Pedro pascal among them.

 

This brotha hasn't changed his looks in 10 years. lol/jk.

 

Here's The show BETH premiered last night

 

This is what me and my love do at times on our days off. Just lay in bed most of the day. Talking, joking and picking with each other. lol.
This scene was very familiar!

 

@Young Herschel 4 episodes into "Marco Polo" & I'm already enjoying the series more than I did that "Shogun" series that aired on FX/Hulu last year, just off the strength of not having to constantly read the subtitles. I know the "Shogun" producers were going for authenticity, but the show was still being made for an American/Western audience. So making over half the dialogue be Japanese was a bad idea & made it tedious to get thru the show.

 

You would have really REALLY disliked the original television adaptation of "Shogun" which aired when I was a little kid in the first grade. There was much more Japanese spoken than in the reboot (no subtitles either!?!) but the adults and older kids seemed to like it. I didn't watch much myself but overheard the bigger kids talking about it everyday at the bus stop.

I agree that "Marco Polo" was much better and in particular more fulfilling in its season one conclusion. Another show that you need to watch if you haven't already is "Warrior" on Max which is produced by the last surviving offspring of the legendary Bruce Lee. In my opinion "Warrior" was one of the top five shows on cable in the last decade right up there with "Godfather of Harlem" and "Carnival Row". It has everything you could ask for in an action drama.

I think it suffered SEVERELY because Chinese Americans are too picky and particular in their criticism of specifications . . . especially the Chinese American women so they refused to embrace the show in the substantial numbers it needed to flourish. The male lead wasn't Chinese or even Chinese adjacent and that probably played a role. We don't care but I bet they did (SMH). It should have been enough that it was based on Bruce Lee's manuscript that his daughter Shannon Lee had found for the Chinese audience to get behind it.

Don't get me wrong . . . I used to share your disdain for subtitles in foreign films but I have learned that depending on how well the subtitles are presented it can be a superior telecast than English voiceover. Some shows and films have mediocre at best English voiceover work. Here is a show I can recommend that I wish Prime Video has continued . . . "The Legend of El Cid" which is done in medieval Spanish but between the subtitles and the English voiceover . . . I enjoyed the original version better. It is a great series that only ran for two seasons and ended just as it was getting so good at the season two finale. It has a real life "Game of Thrones" feel to it with intra-family rivalries that past down the generations. There are really beautiful natural women too. Swordfighting and battles plus the political gamesmanship of "House of the Dragon".

Like "The White Queen" these people really existed during medieval times too and it's so good you probably won't mind the subtitles . . . especially if you know Spanish. Check it out because I liked the two seasons of"The Legend of El Cid" just as much . . . maybe more than "Marco Polo". It has all the same elements of betrayal and backstabbing and surprises plus natural beautiful naked women!! It stars some of the same Spanish actors and actresses from Netflix series like "Money Heist" and "Elite"

 

Is "Warrior" a Medieval Asia epic series like "Marco Polo" & "Shogun"?

 

No it takes place during the Victorian Age. It is like Oliver Stone's "Gangs of New York" starring Leonardo di Caprio, Daniel Day Louis and Cameron Diaz . . . except it takes place in San Francisco and this time the Irish are the natives rather than the steaming horde of unwashed immigrants. It is an absolutely intoxicating series with real Bruce Lee fighting techniques but so much more than a martial arts series as it is multi-layered with crime and political scheming plus the racist tropes of the era.

One episode and I was hooked lol. The second episode was even better and it just keeps climbing every single episode. By the time you get to episode nine "Chinese Boxing" you are going to wish you ordered some pizza and wings to go with it as every disparate subplot converges into that penultimate climax. Then . . . I lie to you not . . . the sophomore season gets even BETTER!!

 

Washington Black | Official Trailer | Hulu
Sterling K. Brown, Ernest Kingsley, Jr., Lola Brown

 

Seems like her character is a Hailee Steinfeld type from Sinners where she is part Black and so looking for a place to fit in.

 

She wasn't part black she had black ancestry. The line if the film that got delivered was her Grandfather was half black; making her mother 3/4 white and 1/4 Black. That means she is 1/8th aka she's white with black ancestry. People have
misinterpreted this and it got around on the internet and I heard everything from her being part black to biracial to whitepassing. lol.
I be like they really need to go back and watch the movie because they are hearing whatever they want to hear. This is one of the ways lies are able to make it around the globe
before the truth has time to put one pant leg on.

As far as Lola Evans and her character Tanna Goff. The actress has the same mixed-race background as Hailee Steinfeld. But her character is whitepassing her Mother is melanesain(a type of black people that is a mystery to geneticist because of their looks. You should look them up.)
so that Mr. Goff her Father can protect her in upper-class white society.

 

So basically, same time period as "Penny Dreadful"?

 

After 2 previous teasers earlier this year, Peacock finally dropped a full trailer for the upcoming season 2 of "Twisted Metal":
