A screenshot of Black American actor Don Cheadle playing "Marty Kaan" on the television series, "House of Lies". He's standing in the middle of the Nevada desert, wiping sweat off his brow. MARTY (quietly): I'm gonna kill you in your sleep, you fucking prick.

me every day at work #blackontv

i would argue that typical hyper-violence in cinema shouldn't include hyperviolent rape for about a million reasons #blackontv #grits

they had it happen to a man who was an abusive bitch to his ex-baby mama and like i hate the dude but i still didn't want to see that #blackontv #grits

i was really enjoying G.R.I.T.S. but the retaliatory rape scene just triggered tf out of me. it felt exploitative and i just can't vibe with that #blackontv #grits

rewatching my most favourite underrated dark comedy #blackontv

why is every single black character in "high potential" biracial? this is a rhetorical question because we all know the reason why already #blackontv

i can't even get into how racist and colourist this is right now because i'll freak out #blackontv

i just watched ryan murphy turn a black woman into a lightskin biracial woman in "the beauty" smdh #blackontv #thebeauty

this is a very clear satire about late 90's family friendly hijinks movie mysteries and you can pick that up from the film's score and production design alone. it's cute, i'm entertained and keke is very believable in this role #blackontv

the 'burbs is pretty cute but let's bffr this is just desperate housewives +3 black people (one's a mixed baby) #blackontv

please just stack the deck black #blackontv

i wanna see black grips and black gaffers and black camera operators and black script supervisors and black boom ops #blackontv

i am going to need television series to actually show black people support by hiring them on every level to tell stories about themselves #blackontv

but damn literally every producer is non-black/white from what i can tell and i am only seeing two black writers: ben philippe (7 episodes) and a. zell williams (1 episode). also only one black person directed two episodes (keith powell) #blackontv

i am happy that i did, though, because so far the series is handling all of those themes well in terms of acknowledging the horror and the horror's impact on the characters. all of the in-world racism feels intentional on the part of the writers, nothing feels accidental in that regard #blackontv

it's taken me a while to prepare myself to watch this series because i knew going in that abuse and predation is an intrinsic part of the narrative so i would be exposed to triggers that i have such as "gaslighting" and "antiblack racism/slavery" #blackontv

the darvo happening in s2 e7 of "interview with the vampire" is next level enraging #blackontv

the abuse dynamics present in the "interview with the vampire" narrative are really interesting each season #blackontv

me af #blackontv

kills my ass that nelsan ellis is dead and this became a part of his legacy #blackontv

so much fucked up shit happens on true blood but the show expected us to blow right by eric and pam's antiblackness in these acts because alexander skarsgard and kristin bauer were upgraded to series regulars after the fact #blackontv

i'm at the part of true blood where lafayette is kidnapped and kept in slave chains in eric's dungeon and it's still one of the hardest things for me to watch in the series #blackontv

Rutina Wesley, a Black American woman with dark skin, kissing her light-skinned Black (now ex) wife with locs.

i did not realize rutina wesley was a lesbian for real for real omg #blackontv

i still think it's hilarious how that the writers took the white fantasy character princess ciri in the witcher, aged her up and wrote her into a sexual relationship with a stud—godspeed more studs for us all #thewitcher #blackontv

It's legendary Black actor, Lawrence Fishburne, in his costume from "The Witcher" season four. I don't even know how to explain his hair piece—I apologize lol

hello, laurence fishburne, how are you!!!? #thewitcher #blackontv

dexter: resurrection is giving me what i want... white rapists and racists getting murdered juxtaposed with happy black people (i'm only three episodes in so far) #dexter #blackontv

i love justine so much. i would love the $250k to go to a black woman #loveislandgames #blackontv

Seargant Doakes from Showtime's "Dexter". He's a beautiful bald Black man with kissing lips.

the most beautiful lips in television history #blackontv

justine looked so amazing on perfect match this season. i know ollie and ad are like otp but i'm sad justine didn't connect with anyone else. i think she did a great job representing herself, tho #perfectmatch #loveislandusa #blackontv
