BLACKISH COMMENTARY

One of the reasons I Love and appreciate the television show BLACKISH. Is that it continues in the tradition of THE BOONDOCKS, KEY & PEELE and THE CHAPPELLE SHOW. Where not necessarily a skit show like the last two, but more episode like the boondocks. What they all have in common is that not Only are they hilarious, but also a voice and critique of the view of the world from a more African-American point of view. It also delves into and let's us dissect and see the humor in the African-American community that while universal also speaks to the audience it highlights. More through satire.

THE FRIDAY THE 13TH SERIES - ON SATURDAY THE 14TH

Not the film, but the current date. The following is a list where I put the FRIDAY THE 13th series in order from worst to best to not only honor the date anniversary, but to also honor the series. The movies aren't necessarily all that great or even good. They are a horror staple. One that I grew up with and avoided early in life, but always kept aware about and saw glimpses of until, Finally becoming a horror junkie and watching the outright.

The films follow the same simple story line of a slasher film. They never quite explain if Jason is a zombie, demon, possessed or just pure evil. Though I give the franchise credit over the years for trying to evolve or add different things to the formula to bring audiences coming back for more. While serving up the same recipe. If it ain't broke don't try to fix it.
