This week marked 15 years since the premiere of ‘Everybody Hates Chris,’ the beloved American sitcom based on the teenage years of comedian Chris Rock.

Debuted September 22, 2005, the EMMY and Golden Globe-nominated series – which aired 4 seasons across 2005-2009 – starred Tyler James Williams (“Chris”) as well as Tichina Arnold and Terry Crews as his parents “Rochelle” and “Julius.”

Taking to Twitter to celebrate the milestone anniversary, Williams celebrated the show that kickstarted his career and dished on the possibility of a reboot.

For many, Rick James was a GRAMMY-winning singer-songwriter whose timeless hits ‘Fire & Desire,’ ‘Mary Jane,’ ‘Super Freak,’ and others are some of the greatest pieces the genre’s ever produced.

For others, the late R&B icon’s talent and discography – despite selling millions of records and earning GOLD and Platinum plaques along the way – remains relatively unsung among his legendary peers, a predicament a forthcoming biographical project looks to remedy.

As we reported here, the Issa Rae-helmed ‘Insecure’ secured a whopping 8 nominations at the 72nd annual Primetime EMMY Awards.

Nabbing mention in top categories like ‘Outstanding Comedy Series,’ ‘Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy’ (Rae), and ‘Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy’ (Yvonne Orji as ‘Molly’), fans of the top-rated HBO show were sure the television academy was aiming to redeem itself for the many times the series had gone nominated yet unawarded in the past.

For Rae, a win would’ve been particularly noteworthy as she stood to enter history books as the first Black female creator of a premium cable show to receive the ‘Lead Actress’ award as well as the second Black woman to take home a Lead Actress trophy ever (the first handed in 1981 to ‘The Jeffersons’ star Isabel Sanfordb who portrayed ‘Weezie’).

Sunday night (September 20), the television academy left those dreams dashed as the series walked away with no victories in the major categories.
