VH1 taps Wayans for scripted series

Umm, Eligio.... "Sucka" was 20 years ago!
Every single thing they've done since then has been PAINFUL to watch, from "My Wife & Kids" to "Little Man". How exactly are they a funny family?

At least this will be on VH1 (as opposed to the other network they like to throw 'black' shows - the CW). They can schedule it between "Flava of Love" and "I Love NY" and have a solid programming block showing us black folk at our finest.

Marlon is a better actor than Shawn Wayans. I like Kim and Marlon the best on the screen. Keenan can be a pretty good producer. I wouldn't mind seeing Damon Jr if it kept Damon off the screen. Damon is behind Keenan when it comes to staying relevant. The show could work. I just wish we could get In Living Color back if they could find some new superstars in the making. Imagine original cast members returning for cameos...

The Wayans are actually a funny family, but they sometimes crosses the line of what is funny and what it gross. Seeing everything they done since "I'm gonna get you sucka" is a good example of that problem.

If they are WGA their membership should of been revoked after they made Little Man.

Are the Wayans not in the Writer's Guild? I didn't think making deals was allowed during the strike any more than actual writing.
