I have it on Tivo ,but do we need another medical show? "City of Angels" 
should have been the standard bearer of a black drama in prime time and it was 
set up to fail.
 
Maybe "True Blood" will have a spin off with the sister in the lead?????

Sigh...well, at least I hope he respected her behind closed doors. 

I'm watching the last half hour of Lonesome Dove. I'm finding lots of good TV 
since I cut out all 3-digit channels.

Anybody planning to watch Jada Pinkett's new series "Hawthorne"?

None whatsoever. Roddenberry recognized it by putting her right behind 
KEEEEEEEEEROOOOOOOO OOK on the Bridge, so that she (or at least *parts*) of her 
made it in shot. And, if the tales I've heard are true, Roddenberry did *more* 
than just "recognize" her beauty... he *appreciated* it in a way *all* men wish 
they could've.

No chauvinism in recognizing beauty. I was flipping channels (a chore without a 
remote), and I saw her at that console. I was just back from 18 months in the 
Philippines, and I was appreciating Black Women. And here is Uhura. Lawd!

....And consistently the most beautiful babe on the show...pardon the 
chauvinism, but she was gorgeous!

I dunno, I've always thought Uhura kicked ass. :D

Beware of the "Disposable Negro Effect" which is akin to the "butterfly

Absence" where all the negroes disappear one day and all the white folks don't 
have a clue as to what to do?

I mean take something as innocuous as Lt. Uhura on Star Trek.  You would think 
she was a disposable negro, afterall, anybody can answer the phone, but it 
totally ignores the fact that her showing up on the bridge everyday in those 
boots and that mini-skirt made the mens,   James T. and the rest of dem, happy 
- heck - eager to come to work.  Remove Uhura and it gone get snarly, snarky 
and plum ugly up in there quick and in a hurry.
