Good Grief they're doing another FRIENDS

These things don't go well the second time around. Just goes to show that the entertainment industry is fresh out of ideas and have been for quite awhile.

Another Friends, Another Black Wizard of Oz and a black It’s A Wonderful Life.

All the writer has to do is take the original script and change the words. No talent or imagination necessary.

Couldn't care less. I won't watch any of it. I don't know why other people make such a big deal about these things. Most of the time, they flop. Is someone forcing them to watch it?

No, but you may be missing the point. The United States used to be the bedrock of fresh ideas and the talent to go with them. That's because we had the freedom to do so.

I also find it appalling that the general public is expected to, not only watch, but applaud, arenas of "art," based solely on the color of some people's skin. Not on the cleverness of the writers, producers, directors, or actors; their skin color.
Does it get more degrading than that? What's worse, is that the black people suck it up for all its worth! It doesn't get much more shameful.

What a sorry world to grow up in, where true creativity and talent is crushed, while mediocrity - and plagiarism of the worst order - is glorified for all to idolize.

I mean, a black Honeymooners? Seriously???!!!

Not surprising coming from you, but still nice to see that some people 'get' it.

I get it because what you said was 100% true 2Cent . Lawyers have litigated any ingenuity to death an the government through it foolish rules that they put in the books to " protect " citizens are destroying anyone from moving us forward with new ideas . I one of those ideas go wrong they'll make it impossible to modify and make it useful . Its robbing us of the will to invent and to improve .
Do we really need 5 stickers on a lawnmower telling us to keep our feet and fingers away from the blade when its spinning ? Do we really need another sticker on it saying not to be held aloft and used as a hedge trimmer ? Maybe Sprint does but the rest of us have something called common sense .
Sorry Sprint but you're the only one I could think of that everyone could picture needing those labels .

oh pooh. i use my old mower to finish the fresh cement to a smooth surface.

.............sarcasm alert!!!!

Agree that that has a major deal to do with it, but it's also the political correctness that has everyone's tongues tied to point where no one is allowed to be original, funny, or show his talent, for fear of upsetting the apple cart. Or worse, getting outright arrested.
