Issa no for me
This looks terrible. Shonda needs to focus on the shows she already has because The Catch was also a awful idea.
Mixed feelings. I like the concept, and I love historical drama, but I don’t know about a white King Musa or Queen Nefertiti – or Harriet Tubman, MLK, or Barack Obama. Likewise, I’m not sure about the mixed race casting here. I’ll probably check it out, though.
I can’t wait I love everything shonda rhimes Tyler Perry and oprah yesssssssss
Interesting! We shall see how it fares with ABC viewers.
