If you don’t know by now, we love web series! As network shows featuring interesting black characters continue to be a rarity, the web has become the destination for black writers, actors, and producers to showcase their work and give audiences what they want. Over the past year I’ve highlighted several up-and-coming web shows. From…
In the illustrious words of Kanye West, network TV doesn’t care about black people. Thankfully, many of us are taking to the web to share our own stories and offer content that is not only inspiring, but also entertaining. Last September I highlighted 5 YouTubers we love, and now I’m back for a re-up. Over…
One of my favorite web series, The Couple, is back with yet another mini-episode that gives viewers a realistic (and funny!) look at what really goes on in relationships. Despite the media’s insistence that black folks don’t fall in love with one another and live normal lives (because that just wouldn’t fit into their little…
Well, you asked for it and it’s back. The second episode of the new web series by writer and producer Kim Williams,the Unwritten Rules, is here, and once again, it’s hilarious. In case you missed the first episode, The Unwritten Rules follows Racey as she starts a new job and has to deal with being…
Last month I told you about a promising new web series out of the UK called Venus vs. Mars, that chronicled the ups and downs (and comical mishaps) of young Londoners in love. The show follows Venus, the main character, after she swears off men because of a breakup with her ex. Although her friends…

In case you missed it, The Unwritten Rules is about “the comedic realities of being an African-American in a predominantly white workplace….
The folks of Black & Sexy TV are at it again. The production team who brought us The Couple and The Number, is taking yet another comical look at relationships and what happens when a couple wants to, ehem, get intimate when they’re apart. Do you wait it out until the two of you can reconnect or do…
After seeing “YOLO” pop up on Twitter and Facebook for months, I finally decided to Google it (don’t judge me), and found out that it wasn’t a drink (like I thought), but an acronym for “You Only Live Once.” I’ve seen YOLO on tweets about partying till dawn, taking last-minute trips, and doing all sorts of questionable…
Jeanine Daniels, Dennis Dortch, Numa Perrier, and the folks of Black & Sexy TV are back with the latest episode of their web seires The Couple. If you haven’t been keeping up, The Couple, is just one of the many web series from Black & Sexy TV, which includes shows like The Number (featuring Issa Rae) and the new…
Over the last year I’ve shared web shows and indie films from up-and-coming writers and directors of color in an attempt to help them share their work with the world.
