Tyler Perry’s writing is absolute shite. Everything I’ve seen so far seems like a “film school” experiment. How TF is this man so successful when his shows are such crap? Case in point the abysmal Too Close To Home. Clearly his demographic audience can’t be this gullible. Madea may have put him on the map but since creating his own studio and production company he’s proven it’s quantity over quality and it shows.
I dont get it either. shite is being way too kind. The only thing that makes sense is money laundering. I cant think of another Industry where you can get away with it so easily. especially with your own “studio”
You watch Love Island and Floridabama Shore, what do you know about a show being good or not 🤣🤣🤣 Why watch his shows if they are terrible??? Clearly not for you.
Q: “How TF is this man so successful when his shows are such crap?”
A: “MONEY”
Everything you wrote is spot on and I agree 100%.
Although I did happen to like the movie “Alex Cross” that came out several years ago…it was a failed attempt to re-start/re-boot the Alex Cross franchise which Morgan Freeman was in and played an older version of Detective Cross back in the 90ies era
I applaud Tyler for having/creating the ability to hire so many actors of color. Yes there has been a huge gap in the visibility of many fine actors of color in film and television. It’s the quality of writing, production and acting that is weak. It’s all flash and no substance. His projects remind me of a MacDonald’s commercial that makes your mouth water and crave a Big Mac… but it never looks as good in person as it does on t.v.
What an absolute 🗑️
Wow this show has is so poorly written and the acting sucks
SpecialEFX you are so right. but people eat up his bull knowing he doesn’t allow room for other writers creativity. he said in a recent interview that he pops out a few scripts a day. I said the same thing how can people only like his point of view, its so not my cup of tea.
I’ve always been ‘Ruthless’. Never had a Ruth of my own. There was one who lived pretty close to me when I was a kid but I never really knew her. I knew her big brother Brian though and he was an @rse. Ruth seemed quite sweet to be honest. Maybe it would be quite nice to have a Ruth? I’ll probably never find out. I’m too old for that kind of thing these days.
Not even a Baby Ruth?
Sadly not. I wrote that comment two years ago and after all this time I STILL don’t have a Ruth. I’ve tried to attract one but it just doesn’t work. I don’t know what Im doing wrong. I guess I’m just not as irresistible as I used to be. Old age is a bit of a sod.
Episodes 16,17,& 19 can’t be downloaded. Please fix these links soon…thanks!
