Will you be watching??? Are You Here For It? The Life Of Biggie Inspires a New TV Series If you never thought you’d see a TV show based around the life of an iconic black rapper, think again. TBS is working on a scripted T.V. series called Think B.I.G. that will be loosely based on the life of Biggie. Yep, you read it right. The show is currently in development and will draw from Biggie’s true story of growing up in Brooklyn and trying to make a better life for himself and family at the tender age of 21. We haven’t gotten wind about the cast or who will be playing the rapper but we certainly hope they choose someone who can get it right. It should be interesting to see what TBS network will do with this storyline. Will you be here for it??
Nickelodeon Debuts First Animated Interracial Gay Couple Times are changing. Nickelodeon apparently wants their cartoon families to reflect more diverse types of families…and now they’ve “introduced” a an interracial gay couple as parents to a cartoon child on an upcoming episode of The Loud House. Via MailOnline : A Nickelodeon show is making network history after introducing its first ever bi-racial gay couple. The couple will appear on The Loud House, a cartoon which centers around the life of Lincoln Loud and his ten sisters. On the July 20 episode, the couple, Harold and Howard McBride – voiced by Wayne Brady and Michael McDonald – are taking their son, Clyde McBride, to a slumber party at the Loud house. The two children are speaking on walkie talkies as young McBride heads over to the Loud household. The show’s innovative scene is heralded by Loud telling McBride: ‘It’s time to make history!’ just as the McBride parents ring his doorbell. The scene focuses on how McBride’s parents are extremely overprotective of their son and shows them handing Loud a sleeping bag, pajamas, a white noise machine, a humidifier, a dehumidifier, earplugs, inhaler and so on. Mr. McBride even hands his son a photo of himself and his partner and breaks down in tears after realizing he won’t be able to tuck him into bed that night. The amusing scene makes no fanfare about the couple’s sexuality but instead draws attention to the couple’s cautious nature. What do you think? It;s not focusing on the “gay” aspect of the boy’s parents lives or really making an issue of it at all. Basically, it’s just reflecting the reality that some adopted children live. And from what we can tell, these aren’t even steady characters… But we’re SURE a lot of people will still have a lot to say about it. So what do YOU think? Nickeleodeon/Daily Mail
