I couldn't see them getting the comic. Anyway, I still couldn't see this show being helpful of their understanding of blacks in America. I know I sound like a skeptic, but the show is satire. It's exaggerating the problems associated with black America. I could see the show giving off the impression that this is how blacks act in America, especially if season 2 is shipped over there since it was Riley-focused.
