Default How did Tempestt Bledsoe get her own show?

Remember that terrible talk show she had about ten years ago. How did she ever swing a deal like that? Her of all people.

Just from being on the Cosby Show. When the show debuted the Cosby show had only been off about 3 years and whenever a show goes off the stars of it usually are offered other ventures.

That was a strange transition, being on a sitcom for 8 years and then a talk show-lol Instead of movie offers or other offers to be on other sitcoms

I saw this show and Wow, Tempestt was just out of her element. She didn't have that authoritative presence needed in a talk show host.

She didn't talk about anything. I recall her talking about going to New York City and the only thing she could say was "I liked the different clothes everyone wears". Um, ok.

Default If Memory Serves ;)

Hey Gang...

If our memories in our place aren't blown, I think this was a Dick Clark production and his idea as a vehicle for Ms. Bledsoe...

Mr. Clark, hope you are doing better daily....get well soon, the TV airwaves aren't the same without you....

Blessings to all....
