Mr. White doesn't like a show created by a young black guy giving his perspective. i'm shocked

Someone named Mr. White giving the most tired/cliched Entitled White Guy rant almost has to be trolling.

You're a bit dense, aren't you?

"Mr. White" is a character from a movie called Reservoir Dogs. I thought a hot-shot screenwriter might know this. DO you know what you're doing out there or are you angry you don't and that's why you spend half your waking life talking down to people on a message board and giving reports on Z-Listers you see at parties.

Edit: possible personal attack

The show mocks almost all of its characters regardless of their race, and most of the characters are black because that is a realistic setting. Most neighborhoods are primarily one race.

Sorry, but if you aren't a troll, then you're just another idiot who can't see past his own skin color.

I think my favorite part of your post is your edit to basically clarify for us all how much of an assh*le you are.

Edit: never mind. I'm not going to have an internet fight with a *giggle* wannabe screenwriter

I wonder if what you perceive as contempt is instead intended to just be a sensationalized caricaturization of real people or situations that glover et al. have experienced...

you know, the same way every character in the show seems to be?

To me all these characters are great, their race has not impacted that character or my liking of that character. This show has done a great job of creating very entertaining and original folks.

Exactly. perceiving some kind of overt bias against white people in this show is verging into some bizarro sjw tumblr territory

Agreed. This show is fantastic and I've never once thought it was some attack against white people. I think they point out a lot of stupid sh*t that people of all stripes and types do which I'm perfectly fine with cause it's funny as hell.

But really...how can someone be surprised that a show called Atlanta, which is based on hip/hop culture within the city, is dominated by black cast members and talks about social issues?

How on earth did a thread about such a great show devolve into this? Staff needs to clean this thread up and ban Mr White.

Back to show talk.....excellent first season.

Another amazing episode. That club promoter disappearing behind that wall and of course the invisible car gag both had me rolling. I've just never seen anything like this.

I don't know how many times I've been in a club and said "I hate shots" and proceed to take a shot. This show is too good!

Those were great.

I had a good laugh at the promoter being slapped with the stack of money as well.

This episode was nothing but mocking black stereotypes. Its racism barely makes up for its brilliance /Mr black
