The Jamie Foxx Show

This show is a classic that you can watch over & over. I get so upset that every time I come on this site, the Black shows have low ratings. Pure racism. This show is one of the best.

I think I would give this show 7.5, but since IMDB only allows whole numbers, I rounded up. I knew Jamie was a talent from his first, In Loving Color sketch, he also had multiple under appreciated roles like Great White Hype, Players Club and Bait.

When Martin went off the air, a gap was left for quality black comedies and Jamie filled that gap nicely. It honestly felt like the same show in many ways and with Garrett Morris in both, I don't think it was a coincidence. Like Martin, the show featured rappers in episodes and had a host of well know black talent who just didn't get any shine on other networks or shows. Jamie also showed great respect by having guess roles from Ron Isely, Gladys Knight and a host of legendary black performers.

Clearly the show started running out of idea's when they focused on Braxton's girlfriend, and Jamie's jingle career, but even in those episodes, there was comedy. Jamie Foxx was a hound and watching him chase women was hilarious and finally starting a relationship with a certain female was clearly the end game.

I loved the Stephen King Parody, Set It Off Parody and all the pop culture references. If you like Jamie or Black Comedy, you can't go wrong here.

Jamie is hilarious in this show and the rest of the crew...I really Love this show and still watch it today....I hope he comes back to making new ones this show was a hit

During the time this show originally aired Jamie Foxx was already a self-made star thanks to "In Living Color". This guy is very talented he can sing,tell jokes,and play various instruments such as a piano. Jamie displayed this talent while portraying himself on the show. At the time I think his show was a little underrated and people didn't give Jamie the respect he deserves. The show was light-hearted and at times silly but that was his character. He had a few serious episodes where his uncle junior was afraid to have surgery and teaching a kid the value of money. The most hilarious part was during the first few season of the show where Braxton and Jamie are competing rivals for Fanci's love. Then towards the end Jamie's crush turn into full bloom love and him and Braxton becoming trustworthy friends. Round the time this show was air he starred in movies with Samuel Jackson,Will Smith,Nia Long and In Living Color co-star Tommy Davidson. Jamie was already in the entertainment industry long before his star status rocketed after the biopic movie Ray. Since then he recorded Unpredictable in 2005 and Intuition in 2008. Also guest-starred on various hip-hop and r&b artist recordings. It seems like Jamie Foxx is a hot commodity in the entertainment industry. By catching the reruns of the Jamie Foxx show its about time he got his break.

"THE JAMIE FOXX SHOW," in my opinion, is an absolute WB classic! I haven't seen every episode, but I still enjoyed it. It's hard to say which episode was my favorite. However, I think it was always funny when a mishap occurred. I always laughed at that. If you ask me, it was nice that all of the main characters had stayed with the show throughout its entire run. It seems that no one stays with a show throughout its entire run. Everyone always gave a good performance, the production design was spectacular, the costumes were well-designed, and the writing was always very strong. In conclusion, although it can currently be seen on BET in reruns, I hope you catch it one day before it goes off the air for good.
