....honoring black moms for mother's day! They got Julia Baker, Florida Evans, Eloise Curtis, Mabel Thomas, Clair Huxtable, Mary Jenkins, and for crying out loud....the mother form Everybody Hates Chris! Jet messed up big time with that one, leaving Weezy off of the black mothers list! I would have put the mother from the Parent 'Hood before I would have put Tichina Arnold's character in there.

I'm thinking because she was more of a wife than a MOTHER on the Jeffersons. Her one and only son was Grown unlike Mabel and Florida who had small children

hmmmm...interesting.

Yeah, I thought of that too, more of a wife, because Lionel was grown. But still, she naturally was a mother. They could have put her in there anyway. Solomon, did you see this week's issue?

I saw that Jet today and I'm writing Jet Magazine about this because it makes no sense that they have the mother from That's My Mama and the mother from What's Whappening but not Wezzie Jefferson who played that character for 14 years vs Mabel's 2 years and Eloise Curtis year and a half. Unbelievable

Good for you Researcher, I just seen the episode from the first season where Wezzie hit Lionel, great episode.

I didn't mind those two, they should have been in there. What bugged me out was that they put Tichina Arnold's character from "Everybody Hates Chris" That show is not great yet, and it will probably never be a classic. Harriet Winslow and Suzzane Douglass should have been there before her.

I agree and I forgot about them.

Yeah the episode-"Lionel the Playboy" Did you like the scene when Lionel came home and George said We are going to talk about this right now, and Lionel No we not, and George said Yes we are, and then Lionel said no we not, and then George jumps up in the air and says-"YES YES YES WE ARE!!!!!!!!!!!!!


LOL



BTW: Feel free to talk about any of the season 1 eps you are watching on this board

Couldn't it be because Weezy is now dead?

Dam that's a dumb statement. 3 of the Black mothers who were on the list are also dead which are

The Mother from Good Times
The Mother from What's Happening
The Mother from That's My Mama

Couldn't it be because Weezy is now dead?

WTF? Three other mothers on that list are dead as well. That's a lame and cold excuse.

Dag...I'm glad you all felt what I felt...cause when I first looked at the title of the article....Weezy automatically popped into my mind....and I was quickly disappointed like the rest of you because she wasn't featured on it.......

That person obviously didn't see the list to make such a crazy statement-lol

Or wasn't a fan of the Jeffersons.

All I have to say about that is:
That is so not cool, because Weezy definitely deserved to be listed within that particular group! Where was THEIR damn mind/minds???
(Meaning the one or ones who came up with the list in general)
Humph! :rolleyes: :confused:
:p

I know, they had to be on medication anytime they added a MOM from a 2005 TV show

Is "Everyone Hates Chris" all that good?! I don't think so. I stopped watching it after the first three episodes. Like I stated before, it will never be a classic.

Maybe they left Weezy off the list because she's dead??

No that's not it, Mabel King was on the list and she died a few years ago.
