White Famous

This is funny. Pharaoh is entertaining and the writing is smart PROVIDED that you realize that it is a part of the same showbiz universe that Californication exists in. A lot of it is tongue in cheek, but I'm sure it's closer to the reality of Hollywood in some respects than some people realize. I will say this: it's A LOT better than Showtime's "I'm Dying Up Here."

Have watched waaaaay too much porn. That's all I'm saying about that.

Honestly this show isn't that bad. I've read many reviews saying that the main character is not really like-able and that the show is racist but personally I think we should give this show a chance. I feel like this show has a lot of potential and can be funny at times. All it needs it is a little time to build-up (Jay Pharaoh better start doing more impressions)

In a PC world, the title needs a name change. That's where 80% of the negative reviews are stemming from... off of ONE episode. Wow. Smh. So after seeing the second episode, this show is basically a combination of Californication and Entourage, told from the perspective of a Black comedian.. Geez, give the show a chance. Several "Entourage" archetypes are in this series, so if you are going to critique "stereotypical Hollywood characters," critique the repetitiveness, not the characters. And if you don't think "those types" exist, feel free to browse (a) Variety, (b) TMZ, or (c) purchase a plane ticket to Hollywood.

Note: As I watch each episode, my rating will adjust based off of story COLLECTIVELY.

It is hard to be hip and get a green light. This is not Insecure or Atlanta.

Someone tried to concoct a romantic stud Black hipster man-child comic sipping Slurpies as a good Dad and loving his baby mama while Makin' it in LA.

Too many cooks spoiled this soup.
