Last of Black Sitcoms Canceled

I am late with this but I learned this evening that "Everybody...Chris" and "The Game" have been CX'D. I had been on the CW's mailing list and got an e-mail with the Fall line up. I am furious because those shows were the last two predominately Black cast sitcoms on network television and now there's no more. Girlfriends was canceled in a shady manner as well and now with "The Game"especially having a great cliff hanger, the CW has gone and given this show the ax. What, do they not value the ratings from African-American viewers, does our interest mean nothing to them?

I sent the network an e-mail that I will not watch the CW any longer. This is ridiculous, I was thinking of how throughout the 80's and 90's, there were a number of great predominately African-American cast shows, there was variety, well-written shows but into the 2000's, they've been picked off one by one.

Are we supposed to be satisfied with the one and two African-Americans per television show on the other stations, if any, that keep up in stereotypical roles, without love interests, the drug dealer and/or addict, side kick. I saw on Fox that there's a show about brothers with two Black males but the total casts haven't been revealed so it remains to be seen if they aren't the only Blacks on the show.

What are we to do but withhold our ratings and let the programming directors know how upset we are. I doubt it change anything but it's a start.

Protest in numbers.
