Who gave Flavor Flav ANOTHER TV show?! http://freep.com/apps/pbc.../804150342
Flavor Flav has always been a situation comedy waiting to happen During rap music's angriest days, he was the comic relief. Now he finally has a sitcom, "Under One Roof," debuting tonight. Yes, this is the Flav who rapped with Chuck D in Public Enemy, a quarter-century ago. "Chuck D was more of the political guy," he said. "I've always been more of a fun person." He stars in the first sitcom on the struggling MyNetwork, which is WMYD-TV (Channel 20) in Detroit. Flav plays an ex-con living with his rich brother. That may sound a lot like "Fresh Prince of Bel Air," which starred another rapper (Will Smith). Smith became a Hollywood star; other rappers followed. Public Enemy thrived for a dozen years, with Flav having troubles with the law. In 1991, he had a 20-day jail sentence after being convicted of assaulting his girlfriend; in '93, he went into drug rehab after shooting at a neighbor. He faded for a decade, then joined the "Surreal Life" reality show. "The only thing that worked to my advantage was that I had no idea who anyone was," he said. Flav soon began a romance-of-opposites with Brigitte Nielsen. "Here's this tall, Danish woman and this short, black guy," he recalled. He is listed at 5-foot-7, she at 6-foot-1. They had their own reality show, "Strange Love"; then he taped three rounds of "Flavor of Love," with a house full of beautiful young women. Then producer Claude Brooks sold him on something more ambitious. That's "Under One Roof." Flav finally gets his sitcom. _____ Dear God.....WHY?! "We may deify or demonize them but not ignore them. And we call them genius, because they are the people who change the world." | |

Pure trash.
I watched that bullshit tonight and the laugh track was so OVER-THE-TOP that it made the show even CHEESIER! Flav can't act. Flav's not funny in sitcom format. The supporting cast isn't funny. The episode's storyline was dumb as fuck. The show plays on a TON of racial stereotypes (The Asian housekeeper - truly embarrassing). It really is just a weak rip-off of Fresh Prince, but the thing is, it's not even CLOSE to being funny. Claude needs to be slapped for this shit and he knows it. It's worse than Homeboys in Outer Space - and THAT'S saying a whole helluva lot! nWo: bboy87 - Timmy84 - LittleBlueCorvette - MuthaFunka - phunkdaddy - Christopher

They did a Flavor of Love 3? They haven't imported it here yet. But from what I saw on the other two, wasn't he piss-poor-stank-DRUNK most of the time they were filming . That mofo always had a a bottle or a "cup" in his hand and half the time his speech was slurred and stuttered to high hell ; will he be able to carry a show stone cold sober with a set schedule and a formal script? | |

Flav isn't really a lush. He's a former coke addict, though but he is retarded "We may deify or demonize them but not ignore them. And we call them genius, because they are the people who change the world." | |
