BM/WW IR sightings on TV

[Young Herschel]

For those that watched last night's episode of legacies did anybody else find themselves screaming at this silly girl....

MG LIKES YOU!!

lol. Oh my goodness.



As far as Rafael goes

Spoiler

Even though he doesn't remember Hope they revealed that he still has feelings for her and likes her. He went to the High School where she is at just to see her before the Oni possessed him. And he looked in love when he saw her in this clip.

But they still got her heartbroken over Landon to the displeasure of the majority of the viewers. Now they even got the fans telling the actors they don't want Landon they want Rafael. lol. He is the unofficial male lead of the show according the fanbase https://twitter.com/search?q=#Legacies rafael&src=typeahead_click&f=live

I don't see him lasting long on the show if the fans keep this up because I don't think they expected the fans to the love this guy so much. And it looks like they so DESPERATELY want Landon to be a thing over Rafael and it. is. not. happening!

The Legacies writers are priming the pump for Rafael fans with how they had Hope's hands on him purposely. I'm sure it was deliberate foreshadowing.

I'm just hoping they balance out the writing much more than they have . . . there MUST be several new girls for MG and Kaleb both to address. The Lizzie thing for MG is just tired after all he did last year to gain her affections . . . MOVE ON!!

I can't for the life of me watch another maddening episode of Legacies. I'd just as soon ingest sulfuric acid - on purpose.

I can't for the life of me watch another maddening episode of Legacies. The current season has gone off- kilter and is getting worse, in my estimation.

Last night's episode was pretty good as the previews I put up last week suggested.

I don't think MG is that kind of vampire to be a ladies' man like that.
It appears they are setting up MG and Lizzy possibly towards the the season 2 finale but I don't want to jump to conclusions. So I don't have a problem with it when it looks like they're setting it up. Let them write the story. Plus they are the fan favorite 'ship' over Hope and Landon among the fans.

Finally got around to watching AHS:1984 earlier and it might be nothing but there was a moment between Ray(Deron Horton) and Brooke(Emma Roberts).

Overall it was a good start to this season setting up a pretty cool and spoofy-esque ode to 80's slasher flicks.

AHS:1984 and it's twist that involves Ray being back from the dead.

Spoiler

After a gruesome death Ray suffered from Mr. Jingles that gave us Jason Takes Manhattan flashback where he was decapitated Ray like the hiker has returned from the dead.

While Brooke, Xavier and Montana were hiding out from Mr. Jingles in one of the cabins Brooke spotted Ray running around outside. Remember they didn't know he was killed so Brooke ran outside after him and found him. During a short embrace and convo they heard Mr. Jingles and ran into the cafeteria to hide out from him and like how these horror movies goes one thing lead to another, Brooke and the ghost of Ray(lol) started sharing their feelings with each other and had sex.

And it turns out not only did she have sex with a ghost, but she revealed that he was her first.

View attachment 7148

This season is wild, but I think we finally understand what's going on. They pulled a fast one on us with the Brooke/Ray tease in the beginning.

Speaking of Emma Roberts, to me she's just normally an above average-looking chick to me, but on "AHS: 1984" she's looking BAD AF to me.

Yeah to me only at certain times she is attractive and in this season she most definitely is. But I guess that's her character we find attractive. lol.

Watching the season finale of "American Horror Story: 1984" right now...Brooke & ghost Ray had another moment in a couple of back-to-back scenes.

Speaking of Emma Roberts, to me she's just normally an above average-looking chick to me, but on "AHS: 1984" she's looking BAD AF to me.

Yeah to me only at certain times she is attractive and in this season she most definitely is. But I guess that's her character we find attractive. lol.

The brunette/black hair really works for Emma Roberts on "AHS: 1984" instead of her usual blonde hair. That might be why she looks so good on "AHS: 1984".

Yeah that was a beautiful moment and thing he did. Just like the ending. Which is rare for AHS. But they were nicely done. A lot of people became big time Ghost Ray fans online. lol.

Julie Pec won't allow it. Black men are good for tension not actually heart throbes in her world.

^^ I was truly ??? with how much production time "13 Reasons Why?" gets to put out so many episodes and each each one is longer than a little bit lol and just filled with as much teen IR as I have ever seen on a streaming or cable series. It made me wonder if it was too much to hope that Stranger Things could upgrade to 10 episodes a year since they surely have more capital than 13 Reasons and would it be too much to reasonably expect that Max & Lucas could behave like 8th graders did in the 80's speaking as a 1989 alumnus of Edgewood Junior High at 14 .

If "Stranger Things #4" is to take place in Spring 1986 and Max & Lucas have been on again & off again since Winter 1985 . . . then would it be plausible for them to have some PG-13 energy next year? I remember the Ronald Regan 80's and all I ask from the Duffers is credibility for the character development of Max & Lucas . . . if they are even still together in "Stranger Things #4" because the show runners for "13 Reasons Why" have a teen IR fetish that has broken new ground it is undeniable they have an agenda for White Male based teen IR . . .
So much so that they have afforded the Duffer Brothers considerable elbow room when writing next year's season to silence any opposition by keeping the Max & Lucas scenes modest but credible in the Spring of 1986: what could be more appropriate than coming of age PG-13 scenes for the core characters??

I'm trying to hope against all odds that Max & Lucas don't get "90210ed" is all but this summer gives me a reasonable basis for concern they may not get written as well as they should in "Stranger Things #4"

This is Netflix
Outside of one or two originals they don't like casting heterosexual black men in romantic lights. Usually their MO is gay best friend. To All The Boys I Loved, Sex Education, On The Block, The Perfect Date, Sierra Burgess Is A Loser etc those are the only ones I can think of off the top of my head. Its very weird.

Just their Original Content:
Let It Snow, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, The Innocents, CandyJar, Little Boxes, Set it up, IO, Slasher, Bird Box, Samantha!, Haunting Of Hill House, Someone Great

and those are just the ones I have seen and can remember. And the IR ones as well. I get what you're trying to say but Netflix does have a better track record at having content with black male love interest than other streaming and network shows. I trust Netflix more than I trust any of the others.

That list is horseshit fam
Let it Snow kind of black guy Latin girl kinda
Jessica Jones they had a quick fling it wasn't a series spanning romance or even one season.
Luke Cage was with Rosario Dawson who by all accounts is afro Latina just a lighter skin black girl
Candy Bar I'll give you
Slasher is a Canadian based show so Netflix doesn't get the credit
Bird box is a late in the game.beyond her prime Bullock don't count that's like old broads in porn finally deciding to even look at black men after their white audience replaced them with younger women
Haunting of Hill House don't count. Dude who the other sister fantasized about but never smashed got more screen time. I don't count ancillary background romances.
Didn't see the other ones you mentioned.

 

[ColiBreh1]

This is a show about three women finding out they share the same biological father.

Spoiler: Slight spoiler of the pilot

The mixed women is a lesbian on the down-low who's black husband used to date Brittany Snow's character, the pilot hints that he still has feelings for Brittany Snow's character, and I can only surmise that when he finds out his wife lives for taco Tuesday's he might go back to his ex.

OK, I'm gonna check "Almost Family" out. In some of the TV promo spots & cast interviews they were heavily hinting on this stuff , so I don't think what you posted in the spoiler quotes is actually a spoiler. The only reason I didn’t post about it in this thread is because I hadn't quite put 2 & 2 together from what I've seen in the trailers/promos/interviews.



@The Dark King @darkcurry Y'all checked "Almost Family" yet?

...

...

@darkcurry @The Dark King Y'all up on "Almost Family"?

 

[The Dark King]

@darkcurry @The Dark King Y'all up on "Almost Family"?

Saw the first episode lost interest quick when the only black dude was being used as a plot device to get to his wife liking women. Black male sacrifice I ain't for it

I think the black dude that's Megalyn E.'s character's Husband & Brittany Snow's character are supposed to be an eventual endgame couple. I watched this week's episode (season 1, episode 4) and that's still an ongoing storyline. But it is fucced up the drama that's gonna have to happen for them to get together.

Didn't see the other ones you mentioned.

You said romantic light. Didn't name any of the criteria you just mentioned (especially about being IR specific. lol.) and some of it is subjective. They are seen as a romantic interest for the ladies involved and they are also strong straight males with good intentions. And more importantly NO LOVE TRIANGLES! lol.

Slasher was purchased by Netflix so yeah my bad it's not original content. And Nell and Arthur if you seen Haunting On Hill House was a big part of her character's arch. It was an ensemble cast which is why they each had their own backstories, episodes and scenes. The creator himself said it was an ensemble and it played out as such.

That episode of Nell and Arthur was beautiful and had elements that is rare for an IR couple involving a black man and fans love it. Nell had the love interest on the show basically. You rarely ever see a true love story between black men and white women on shows with the exception of The Good Place.

And how is Shameik Moore a "kind of black guy". lol. What?

I meant Let it Snow. Kind of. Sorry should have used punctuation.
Again stop it with the Haunting of Hill House they had like 3 scenes when the met the wedding and his death. If he had more than 6 minutes of screen time I'd be surprised

You know what and people including I would agree on the very little time there was... but context matters. Even though you are right there wasn't a lengthy time dedicated to it I'm pretty sure you are understating those numbers. And how much of it was a part of Nell's story arch. https://tvline.com/2018/12/04/the-haunting-of-hill-house-nell-arthur-love-story-screen-time-netflix/


But As the fanbase of Hill House online under the hashtag and the creator taking notice of how much it resonated with audiences with only around 15 minutes. It was a memorable part of Haunting On Hill House. People still talk about them. So what your searching for is subjective and different from not only audience reaction but Nell's actual story arch.

And again you said 'heterosexual black men in romantic lights'. Arthur was Nell's romantic light. If it was actually under six minutes and three scenes then I would agree with you but as someone that remembers the episode and the scenes it wasn't the case and it played out over the entire episode:

But if about 15 minutes and around 6 scenes can get you guys to throw this away my goodness! I'm glad not everybody with ya'll. lol.
