Chris Rock speaks on the head exec at Fox choosing the Method man & Redman show over Everybody Hates Chris via Variety

@Variety The more he does interviews, The more I understand why Will Smith smacked tf outta of him 😂

@Variety He was bout to get real Caucasian and caught himself

@Variety "I'm not going to say who the head of the studio was at the time" Why not? You had no problem identifying Red and Meth.

@Variety Because nigga redman & meth we’re hotter than u coming off of how high! They were more familiar on tv more than u at the time AND at the same time on the radio I’d still choose meth & red over Chris rocks shit

@Variety a lot of weird microagressions. and also wont throw the exec under the bus by name but will throw red and meth by name, is a choice. lol

@Variety Mentioned Method and Red because they are nobody to him in his mind... but protected the exec,,,, Interesting

@Variety Attrack the black men but don’t say the exec name because u will be black balled

@Variety You don’t make it that far in show business by having a spine, Chris Rock is the best example of that.

@Variety This corny as hell … “They doin fine … I love those guys” I bet he never spoke to either of them 🤣🤣

@Variety It seems people in the comments gloss over the fact that Fox chose a show that portrayed black men in a stereotypical manner.

@Variety Probably the reason why the show was big in Brazil is because Brazil has the largest population of African decent outside of Africa.

@Variety Everytime Chris Rock says something lately, I cringe. What happened to this dude man lmao

@Variety That red and meth show was unwashed ass on a monday

@Variety Will Smith should have slapped him through the floor

@Variety I can see why Will slapped this nigga lol smh

@Variety What did he say wrong here?? Seems like the comments are reaching He said he couldn’t believe his Black family drama/comedy lost to a show abt 2 rappers smokin weed. What’s the problem? He’s entitled to that opinion He even said he loves Red & Meth & they’re doing great now

@Variety Honestly, it would’ve definitely got canceled if It was on Fox, not many shows even last long on there. Shit even Family Guy got canceled at one point.

@Variety “They’re doing fine I love those guys” definitely code for “I hate these niggas”

@Variety To be fair. Method man and redman are the best. Met them at an event one time and I was like how high was dope as fuck and they both acted like I was their cousin. Took a picture with me and me and method man discussed 36 chambers. One of the best nights ever

@Variety Even the Everybody Hates Chris Cartoon is underrated, its mad hilarious… 😂

@Variety He’s not throwing method man/red man under the bus. He’s just criticizing corporate studios for not supporting the portrayal of a two parent black household and rather perpetuating stereotypes…family shows usually win any tv match up

@Variety The point ya missing is that fox producer pick up a show about 2 black man smoking weed partying and getting into crazy shit then a black family comedy show I get where he coming from

@Variety Trying to act like Meth & Red wasn't a better pull back then

@Variety Y’all are seeing the real Chris is crazy to me He’s always been like this. Tone deaf and entitled. His show is no different from the red and meth show. How is it any different from the way he choose to depict black women in his show… he’s nuts 😂

@Variety always been a b!tch will did some of us a favour

@Variety Chris Rock deserves more respect.

@Variety everybody hates chris is a all time classic show. wtf was fox thinking

@Variety Everybody hates Chris was top tier comedy sitcom not just for black sitcoms but sitcoms in general crazy how it didn’t air on Fox that would’ve been generational

@Variety He'd have probably got cancelled after one season on Fox.

@Variety Will should’ve slapped him harder

@Variety Chris rock never put his brother on and that makes me sick. He was so jealous of him growing up as a adults he has no love for him

@Variety Rock too cowardly to say it, so I will. The Fox exec was Gail Berman, former head of FoxTV, she had rep for canceling shows before they gained footing, like Firefly. She also pushed heavily to increase the profile of the jingoistic "24" and reality trash American Idol

@Variety He still doesn’t get it. Which is why he lost

@Variety Bruh wants a pat on the head from white folks

@Variety Wouldn’t name the head of the studio, but name dropped Red and Meth to throw hate on them 🤔 that’s not 💯
