I know it doesn't to be a sitcom, but damn can they at least show them being somewhat happy and not so dysfunctional? I mean come catfights, pregnancy, the "down low" bs, misgynist rapper, and other general craziness is a little off putting.

that's what I'm saying! i was hoping for another positive show about black women getting by on each other and not men.

"I can't watch this." Really, I wish I could say the same.
Gay guys AND Ashley? I gotta watch at least the first four episodes (probably the only) because I need to know if anyone guessed this bruh was gay. The acting or the words aren't working for me though. Damn my need to see two black men kissing.

See I'm going to wait the youtube clip comes and watch it along with Jack and Ianto making out.

How else would you be able to tell they are black?

rubyphoenix September 18 2008, 14:13:47 UTC

ok, first, my black card may be in jeopardy (as always) but wtf is a Buppy?

second, what channel is this coming on? the preview seemed a little low budget and thrown together. something BET would do, or an internet show. But I'd watch, only for the gay affair that they showed and to see what Ashley's Tatiana Ali's been up to. Unless it's on BET.

Buppy- Black Yuppy

I think it's going to be an internet show. Or maybe they're trying to drum up interest for TV? I'm pretty much starved for (1) a show featuring black women and (2) something soapy/trashy, so I'll probably watch.

ia anything is better than nothing.

though it was still lol

The production quality is straight-to-dvd, the title is horrific, Tatyana Ali seems to have found a more respectable way to "go upstairs and disappear" (a la jamie foxxworth), and the women try to hard to be sex in the suburbs. So, for the downlow dude in the clip I have one thing to say...

HATED IT!
