'Unsung Hollywood' returns February 2015 No lineup has been announced yet, so who would you like to see documented this season? My picks are as follows: Paul Robeson Pigmeat Markham Hattie McDaniel Lena Horne Cast of Amos n Andy Nipsy Russell Diahann Carroll Melvin Van Peebles LaWanda Page Cast of Sparkle Paul Mooney Tim Reid Robert Townsend Sinbad Booker T And just for fun, the series "Life After" which I'm assuming will also be back next year at some point. Teresa Graves Donnie Simpson Marsha Warfield Lisa Bonet Lark Vorshes Holly Robinson-Peete Jalel White Joe Torry Sisqo Flex Alexander PRINCE: Always and Forever

I'd be interested in: Mr. T Theresa Harris Lola Falana Leslie Uggams Mabel King Roscoe Lee Browne Rex Ingram Jim Kelly Lynn Hamilton Whitey's Lindy Hoppers Gary Coleman Darnell Williams You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton | |

I would love to see one on Paul Mooney. Despite being a legend he is soo underrated. He deserves a special. | |

And at some point, we gotta do a whole episode about Ray-Ray-mom-n-them. That's how important some of us think we are. | |

Diahann Carol? She is a Pioneer, she does not have an "Unsung" story from her decades long career..She "schooled" us on Oprah's "Master Class" series....She's an "Oprah Legend"....I don't think there is a Diane/Diana that did not achieve Fame (Including Dianne Reeves)...That's a Powerful Name... | |

I think there was a True Hollywood Stories on Good Times (Or on the Bio Channel.) There's a Boyz In Tha Hood film hitting theathers this year. I expect a documentary to follow. Kid N Play had a Life After and plut theyre doing House Party. That should cover Kid N Play. PRINCE: Always and Forever
