Observations from watching "THEA" after 5 episodes - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

TVFactFan · 03-18-2008, 07:56 PM

I see that the house was changed after the first episode

Thea was way too sassy

Brandy's character was too ghetto

The oldest brother act 10 years older than the second brother who was only two years younger

The youngest brother had a GROWN MAN face on a little's boy body

Danesha's Boyfriend was a CERTIFIED GEEK

The stand out character was JEROME

The Worst character was LEONARD

I had a chance to get an episode uploaded to youtube by ATLien. Jason Weaver and Thea definetely had excellent chemistry. Weaver also had excellent chemistry with Adam Jefferies. We really didn't need the youngest brother. Danesha could have been written as a schoolmate of Jerome who keeps him in line at school. Uncle Charles could have been written as either Thea's husband or ex-husband. No need for Yvette Wilson.

Wednesday night wasn't a good night for this show, it seemed like TGIF material, especially with Jerome dominating the storylines. What does everyone else think?

Solomon, what is wrong with "acting ghetto"? I notice you say that a lot abt tv shows. Not a debate, just a question.

Because I think black women should not always be playing the stereotypical role and play more intelligent roles. And not be too clownish and sassy

Yep, I remember there was the Thanksgiving episode where Dimesha had her own storyline. I think she had to cook the dinner as Thea had to work and Thea got off early and tried to steal her thunder, other than that I remember Jerome storylines or him gettting the best lines in the episode. If this show was on TGIF, it could have lasted 3 to 4 seasons. It probably would have been a good show either before or after Hanging with Mr. Cooper. I hate to say it but hell, it could have probably worked on the SNICK lineup on Nickelodeon, lol.

It probably would have lasted longer on UPN

I don't think that she was "Ghetto" at all, also there isn't anything wrong with a woman or girl with a little sass.

This show was ok! Not something I would cry over missing an episode. I do want every ep for nostalgia purposes.I agree the only person I find interesting is Jerome. All of the other actors are pretty boring in their performances..

Did Brandy blow up as an R&B star before or after Thea came on?? I don't remember.
