Members Khan Posted April 10, 2010 Members Share Posted April 10, 2010 "That black storyline"? Really? LOL! Number one, reading between the lines, it seems like TLW (and probably others) have questioned MAB and Rauch's decision to hire McCrary. And number two? Malcolm is SUPPOSED to be off-camera, making sandwiches. So there. :-P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bellcurve Posted April 10, 2010 Members Share Posted April 10, 2010 How can you get "the Black Storyline" up if the black characters are featured on Food Stamp Days and the beats of their story are even more unexplored than their white counterparts?

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted April 10, 2010 Members Share Posted April 10, 2010 Now, now, Olivia must be making soups to serve with Malcolm's sandwiches... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bellcurve Posted April 10, 2010 Members Share Posted April 10, 2010 Neil's at the cash register? And Devon is valeting the cars? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaytimeFan Posted April 10, 2010 Members Share Posted April 10, 2010 Absolutely...it is in such stark contrast to the Bell/Alden/Smith (and yes though it pains me to admit it) LML days. There wasn't so much of a distinction, from my view there was no 'Black storyline'...there were just excellent black actors working with decent, thoughtful, writing. Back in the 90s, we had Mamie warring with Jill and Neil, Dru, Malcolm, Olivia, Nathan, Keesha having actual storylines that weren't islanded unto themselves. It's vile, the show has gone to absolute sh*t. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sylph Posted April 10, 2010 Members Share Posted April 10, 2010 And it is very likely, almost certain, that it will stay there. The ratings aren't falling. Nothing alarming is happening. Which is... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members MoTheGreat Posted April 11, 2010 Members Share Posted April 11, 2010 On another board somebody said a spoiler saying that Malcolm secret is reveil & Olivia is coming back. Is she's his wife to be. I wrote he'll finally tell us what he been putting in the sandwiches as meat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Chris B Posted April 11, 2010 Members Share Posted April 11, 2010 Malcolm lied when he said Olivia told him about Lily's cancer. It's that and another secret they haven't revealed. Just will highlight how ridiculous Olivia and the rest of the family's absence is. Malcolm, Darius or not, deserved a HUGE, well promoted return with tons of screentime. And Olivia should've been a critical part of it. Now he's so marginalized I can't even be mad at the recast bc he's been given NOTHING to even attempt.

Members Leia Posted April 11, 2010 Members Share Posted April 11, 2010 Correction....not "the Black Storyline" it is THAT Black Storyline there is a different degree of offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
