The Parkers

I think today's episode was very degrading. The professor has disrespected Nikki for 5 years and when she finally meets yet another man who respects she once again drops him for the professor. I have forbidden my young daughter to watch this show in syndication because it degrades women. Nikki's character was that of a strong black woman yet she accepts a man who has publicly humiliated her over and over. She should have told him it's little too late. The professor actions has suggested that he thought Nikki was beneath him and the only reason he showed up at the wedding had nothing to do with love but his ego. If Nikki had married the other guy then it would have sent a message of self worth not degradation. I absolutely hated the way this show ended. I never found it funny the way Nikki chased the professor. What self-respecting, black woman would continue to pursue a man who totally disrespected them repeatedly? Only a woman with low self esteem. Thumbs way down for the series finale.

Kim Parker continues to be just as boy-crazy as she was when her character was on "Moesha". On this show, we learn that she gets this trait from her mother Nikki, who chases after stiff Professor Ogilvie in every episode. Unlike "Moesha", which has turned into a dramedy over the past couple of years, "The Parkers" are all about fun. Viewers with good memories will remember Jenna Van Oy as having been a regular on "Blossom". Countess Vaughn, who plays Kim, had a reoccuring role on "227", and was also a "Star Search" contestant in the singing category.

I've seen almost all the episodes on BET, and I hope it comes out on video. I think it's the funniest show to come out in the new millennium and I wish it never ended. Fortunately, we can still see it on BET, but mark my words, it'll take its rightful place on DVD and on TV Land or Nick at Nite in the years to come. I also love Mo'Nique because she is the only role model for (BBW) big, beautiful women.

One of my favorite episodes was the Tae Bo episode, and also when Shaq came on the show. I love all of Mo'Nique and Andell's antics as well as Kim's "ka-yut" personality and marvelous singing voice. And Boo, is really hot. Worth fighting for. There are so many memorable episodes, that if you haven't been fortunate enough to see it, you must check it out. It is hilarious and loads of fun.

Each episode is funny. Especially with Nikki always trying to get with her "boo" Professor Olgllevee! This show is non stop fun, and laughs, whereas the show it spun off from, Moesha, was more of a dramaty. Moesha and other character from the show have came over in various episodes. If you want a good laugh, definetley turn onto The Parkers!

The Parkers has stolen the hearts of many people throughout it's run on UPN on Monday nights. Now that it is in syndication I laugh with Nikki, Kim, and the gang every day. The Parkers is very entertaining and sometimes even educational(Not with Kim tough).My favorite episode was the episode when T found out his honey was HIV positive which also dealt with racism.I am hispanic but I feel identified with the African American community also. Monique's character Nikki, is not scared to speak her mind and I really think that's one of the reason why her character has been successful. The PArkers is the best show on UPN. No other show on UPN can make me laugh as much as the Parkers On a scale of 1 to 10 I give it a 9.
