24: Legacy : Its rating low because it has a black lead.

Its rating low because it has a black lead.

Once again imdb proves how racist it really is. Im so glad these boards are all going in the trash where they belong.

Re: Its rating low because it has a black lead.

I think the ratings will remain, but you are correct

Re: Its rating low because it has a black lead.

Typical leftist *beep*


The ratings are low because the acting sucks and it doesn't have JB so the fanboys are going to jump ship.

Re: Its rating low because it has a black lead.

Take away the Black lead auto-one stars and it's in the 8's. Any 24 fan will probably enjoy it.

Re: Its rating low because it has a black lead.

I disagree, it's just not very good.

Re: Its rating low because it has a black lead.

I wont watch any show or movie where they replace a white star with a black one. Or a female one. Or an Hispanic one. I LOATHE PC.

Re: Its rating low because it has a black lead.

To bad, thats the world, other races do exsist take a bow you are the reason why the message board is being shut down with your racist idiotic rhetoric.

Re: Its rating low because it has a black lead.

But blacks are only 12.8% of us and don't belong in EVERY show. Especially when show previously had popular white lead. Pure tokenism.

Re: Its rating low because it has a black lead.

The idiocy from the left wing fascists never ends.

Re: Its rating low because it has a black lead.

me too simply because i won't have to hear from you ever again.

Re: Its rating low because it has a black lead.

Who even cares about that? It's 2017, complaining about someones skin color is so 1950.

What's wrong with the show is that it's a disastrous mix of cliches and generic material. It's awful, I don't even understand how they got funded to create this. Did nobody read the "script"? Every plot so far has been so predictable and generic it's physically painful to watch it. The only reason I even watched episode 2 was that someone say it was so much better than the first on this forum yesterday. It was most likely a troll.

Re: Its rating low because it has a black lead.

Did you watch the original series? It became so predictable / cliched it spawned a whole bunch of parodys and memes making funny of the fact. That's 24 - it does the same thing every season and people come back to watch en masse. Please don't pretend this show has been anything but a cash grab for cheap action / emotions. That's why I love it and the new series is no different.

Re: Its rating low because it has a black lead.

I agree, 24 was always a fun popcorn action show, but when you step back and actually think about the plot, the show falls to pieces. I watched the first 2 eps and it was not great, you guys are right, it's too predictable.

Re: Its rating low because it has a black lead.

It's a different character. If they tried to pass the guy off as "Jack Baur", THAT would be a mistake. (Ex. Jimmy Olsen, Perry White, James West, Iris Allen).

Re: Its rating low because it has a black lead.

Jesus I am sick of this. The show is just not very good. That is why it is rated low.

guess what SUCKER we are sick of this shyt as well!

Re: Its rating low because it has a black lead.

I just watched the second ep and yes, the show isn't very good. The writing is actually kind of crappy, and these actors aren't so great. Jimmy Smits is awesome. The brother is good. Everybody else. eh. The lead, he's just not leading man material. Skin color ain't got nothing to do with it. The last few seasons of 24 weren't exactly tearing up the ratings either. The premise is kind of played out.

Re: Its rating low because it has a black lead.

Two main reasons contribute to the low ratings:

1. The show is not very good.

2. The show has an unknown black lead.

Re: Its rating low because it has a black lead.

Better writing, filming and an actor like Idris Elba and I would love this show. It has nothing to do about race but about execution (including acting).

Re: Its rating low because it has a black lead.

YOU CAN'T REPLACE KEIFER!

Re: Its rating low because it has a black lead.

This is part of trend to recycle successful shows with black leads. And they have all failed. We are 87.2%, they are 12.8%. Hollywood learns this the hard way.

Re: Its rating low because it has a black lead.

When has this happened before?

I'm your daddy and what do I do?

Re: Its rating low because it has a black lead.

Shut the PHUK up you miserable piece of Sh!t. You @ss clot. I serious pity you, PHUKER mcPHUKFACE. Phuk off already.

Re: Its rating low because it has a black lead.

Artstcc,

You sir, do for racism exactly what false rape claims do for real rapes. Look up the little boy that cried wolf and learn how false claims lower attention to the cries of truth.

Re: Its rating low because it has a black lead.

Because it is not possible for a show to have a black lead and actually be poorly written I suppose. LOL

What explains all the low ratings for the shows that Tyler Perry makes mostly for a black audience?

Re: Its rating low because it has a black lead.

The 24 gimmick is just played out. It was so played out after 8 seasons that the show wasn't even meant to end at the end of Season 8 and yet they tapped out halfway through because of ratings and just how shtty the show became. 24: Live Another Day was supposed to conclude it and then that was a let down at the end.

This show has the same format except it doesn't have Jack Bauer to keep people interested. It has generic, uncharismatic black guy as its lead.

Re: Its rating low because it has a black lead.

well it isn't played out for me, I still love it. Considering the amount of crap currently on prime time I will take this "played out" show all day every day

Re: Its rating low because it has a black lead.

If you love this show, you *beep* retarded.

Full on retarded.

Re: Its rating low because it has a black lead.

You should not attack people for think differently than you

Re: Its rating low because it has a black lead.

Explain to me why The Wire has such a high rating.
