To assist in preserving your integrity, I'm assuming you meant to say "Why don't any of my black friends and acquaintances watch Seinfeld?"

Several of my friends who are black enjoy Seinfeld quite a bit. I only know of one acquaintance who said, roughly, "Seinfeld is just a little too white for my taste." Much like how I feel about the ethnic intensity of "Moesha".

I wouldn't say "ethnic intensity" is "Moesha"'s problem...

Try watching "Martin," which is hilarious and very African-American at the same time.

First of all, to find good African-American/Black comedy try "Living Single". Martin buys into too many of the methods that were used in the early days- like dressing up and making funny faces. Moesha just isn't funny. Or you can try "The Fresh Prince of Bel- Air" which is going off the air soon.

I just wanted to let this group know that I am black and I love Seinfeld...I never miss it or the reruns...Yes, he is a little white but hey, isn't that what most white people are? :)

Why do you make such an uninformed comment? What do you base it on? I'm a Black woman and I love Seinfeld. My entire family does, and so do most of my Black friends. So, why do you feel it's necessary to make such a blanket statement when you have no fact to back it up with?

Just wondering Coe
