a crush a day ♥ | men. race. relationships.: 293. run the (TV) world

a crush a day: one part humorous & two scoops opinionated

Humorous: Talking about FMILF (famous men I’d like to freak) while let my mind go wild (PG-13 most of the time).

Opinionated: Dispelling racially constructed and stereotypical ideas of the typical guys that an Ghanaian-Canadian (black woman/BW) is attracted to and/or attracts.

Policies: Real life crushes will only be discussed when they show teachable moments. Their identities will be hidden with a nickname. No one will be called out directly through their real name or anything of that nature.

293. run the (TV) world

via ABC

Shonda Rhimes has a bad track record with me. Her shows are currently zero for the bottom two.

She made a Mammy character of, one of the smartest characters on Grey’s Anatomy, Dr. Miranda Bailey and reduced a beautiful intelligent black woman Dr. Naomi Bennett on Private Practise to serious wallpaper (before the actress had enough sense to cut the show) and destroyed her spicy interracial romance with Dell long before she killed off his character.

Shonda, you are not running the TV world properly here.

But even with her intense FAIL track record, I am going to check out her new show. It is because I am a masochist? No! I am going to watch her new show because of the staring person’s track record, Kerry Washington, one of the best actresses of our time. I will put my hopes in your capable talents, hun.

I’ll hope for but I’m not going to ask for IR pairings (which Ms. Rhimes loves to give and take away for some reason) but I am going to ask for coherent storylines and keeping her as *THE STAR!*

Give ‘em heaven, Kerry!
