Some of the reasons on why the Micahel Evans charcater annoyed me - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

TVFactFan · 08-05-2005, 02:35 PM

1.He tells florida-"Make Sure you get CHOCOLATE Ice cream

2.Walks out on a test because it tells you how white you are

3.Rich Blacks eat their chicken broiled

4. Wanted to eat a certain brand of Oatmeal because a Black man was on the box

5.Bringing home a Wino

6.Letting someone stay at his house for the weekend who was taking his lunch money.

I'm sure there are more reasons-lol

I'm sorry but bringing both of them to the house was a little too much

Michael got on my nerves too. People like him in real life get on my nerves too (white and black). I don't care what shade of color God made your skin, respect people for who they are.

I seemed to recall reading somewhere that the producers wanted someone in the Evans' family to be outspoken, kinda like Archie Bunker, but not in a racist way. They felt if one of the adults in the show said those comments it would be taken as possibly racist and/or it wouldn't be funny. The producers felt that coming from an intelligent child, the point could be made across the audience without the negativity that may come from it had those statements been made by an adult on the show.

I just didn't really dig the character as a whole. When he got older and sang in a couple of episodes, that was grating to my nerves!
