I’m bringing my old school Black TV shows thread over here. I’ll gradually add to it over time. Enjoy!
Up first…
“New Attitude” (1990), starring Sheryl Lee Ralph, Morris Day and Larenz Tate.
Was a part of ABC's "TGIF" lineup.
Inspired by the classic stage play "Beauty Shop".
Lasted 8 episodes.

Busta Rhymes and Ol’ Dirty Bastard were insanely talented together because they were in the same realm. They literally complemented each other here in the “Woo-Hah!! Got You All in Check” remix.
