A Black Lady Sketch Show

Old white man here, and I can't get enough of this. First-rate writing and acting in a unique format that is consistently very funny in its own right but in my opinion rises above *because* every sketch features, well, Black Ladies. They are hilarious and their sketches' topics and delivery are like nothing else I've seen. And I really appreciate that. I hope Robin Thede and company continue to write and perform and grow in this vein.

I find this show VERY funny! Hilariously witty. If you're a young black woman/man you are sure to die of laughter. As a 23 year old black woman, I can relate to a lot of the satirical remarks. I feel like this show was made for me and my girls! Big fan of the show!! I'm really offended by those who are grouping this show with the Chapelle show. The concept is completely different. Robin does a wonderful job of highlighting key black women in both mainstream and underground media in a way that they are rarely seen. i.e. Nicole Byer in the same episode as Angela Bassett (who would've thought?) Keep doing your thing Robin!! I hope this show stays on HBO for a while.

WHY did I not hear about this earlier??? I subscribe to HBO and have been definitely missing out. This show is ridiculously funny; the annoying woman had me literally doubled-over from laughing. This is NOT "def comedy jam" or some Wayans spin-off where shock-value replaces humor. This is intelligent, innovative AND above all hilarious.

I have to admit that while starting to watch the first episode I was a bit prejudicial, thinking how tired I was of hearing women referred to as 'b*****s' & 'ho's' & all the other modern vernacular. I very soon changed my mind about this show however. The cast are all spot on with their character portrayals & the whole show is knowing & self aware. I think it is clever & very entertaining. I am looking forward to what these ladies poke fun at in future episodes.

Whether a sketch is good or great, these ladies are always a lot of fun. I'm in love with the Boppers sketch. Please find a way to bring them back. There's always one sketch per episode I flat-out adore and the rest are fun. Bring back the Boppers!!
