Black-ish is not afraid to take on the issues and tonight at 9p on ABC they brilliantly take on postpartum.
Ever since Bow (Tracee Ellis Ross) had her 5th child, she has been an emotional wreck who cannot bond her son. Therefore, her kids take on the parenting responsibility for their mom and Dre (Anthony Anderson) is left wondering what is wrong. Junior (Marcus Scribner) helps out by getting his siblings to baby proof the house and his dad reads some women’s magazine’s. That is when Dre realizes that his wife has postpartum. He takes her to doctor to get her help, but is she willing to take it?
During tonight’s emotional episode, they have an about time moment that will cause you to applaud at the television. And make sure to stay until the very end for a great oh 💩 moment that will have you laughing all through The Mayor. Believe me, you do not want to miss it.
In fact, you do no want to miss tonight’s episode that I think is the best Black-ish so far. It is the perfect amount of laughs to go with the serious nature of this topic and plenty of heart to bring it all together. This is definitely their Emmy submission and Ross deserves to win one. She won’t because it’s Veep last season, but she deserves to.
Back in 2003, we fell in love with Kangaroo Jack. Now, 14 years later, Anthony Anderson and Jerry O’Connell are ready to do Kangaroo Jack 3. Which really is the 2nd one since the sequel was animated and didn’t include the humans.
Back to the charming 3rd movie, the Black-ish star is going to make his case for it tonight at 10p on his Animal Planet show Animal Nation with birthday boy O’Connell and a special guest. Who that special guest is, we will have just have to tune in to find out.
And we also have to tune in to show Hollywood we want Kangaroo Jack 3 to happen! It is what the world needs now. Especially, since someone caused a rift between US and Australia recently. This is the movie that could make that tension go down under mate! That and these two should be men at work together again.
Thanks to Celebrity Family Feud and To Tell The Truth, we know that Anthony Anderson’s mom is a real character. We just didn’t know how much.
The Black-ish star told Conan O’Brien that his mother told him the proper way to eat a cookie when he was in his early 20’s. Not only did she teach him how to eat the cookie, she also taught his brother and his friends the way to make a woman very happy at this lesson. But wait, there were women there too and she explained to them how to suck on the lollipop. Let’s just say it involved a vein.
How? She used videos as visuals aids.
Why? Because Papa Anderson wasn’t good at it and she wasn’t going to let her boys go out into the world not knowing how to please a woman. And not let women go out there not knowing how to please a man!
Did it work? Yes! Did the actor ever tell the women’s whose cookie he ate that he learned how to do that from his mom. Yes! What happened when they didn’t believe him? He called her and his mom would ask them if she was a good teacher. She is!
So good, I want to know why TLC or any other network doesn’t give her a show where she teaches Conan O’Brien, Andy Richter, me and you the proper way to have oral sex and other sexual tips for the tip and more! Could you imagine! And she can use her son to demonstrate on dolls. We know that Cable can’t show that! Seriously, we can all use a lesson because unless we learned how to do it from Mrs Anderson, did we really learn how to do it?
Anthony Anderson was checking out Tracee Ellis Ross’ scalp like he was looking for a needle in a haystack. What was he searching for? Lice? Nope, he was looking to see if her hair is really real. The answer is yes! That is all hers, no weaves, no combovers, no tracks! Granted, it should’ve been obvious because her curls are just like her mom Diana Ross’ locks. Don’t you agree?

Black-ish is normally a comedy, but tonight they are taking on a serious issue.
The Johnsons are all sitting in front of the television awaiting the verdict on an alleged police shooting of an African-American teenager. Dre (Anthony Anderson) and his wife (Tracee Ellis Ross) feel differently about how they should talk to their kids about it. Their older kids Zoey (Yara Shahidi) and Andre Jr (Marcus Scribner) feel differently than their parents and different than each other. The twins, Jack (Miles Brown) and Diane (Marsai Martin), are too young to really understand what is going on, and everyone debates how much they should know. Finally, Dre’s parents (Laurence Fishburne and Jenifer Lewis) have their own opinions from experience and have no problem sharing their views with their family.
During the half hour episode, they will all share their different opinions and listen to everyone else’s ideas on the situation and by the end of the episode they all come together.
It is a very powerful, intense, well-done 30 minutes of television that should not be missed because it shows so many different sides of the same story that we are all talking about. There will be laughs and there will be tears, so be prepared to go through the gamut of emotions.
I will seriously be surprised if this episode is not nominated for an Emmy because it is that incredible.
