Just checked out a new show via Hulu called "The Soul Man". This show will premiere on TV Land on June 20th, but Hulu had a special glance at the pilot episode on their site.
This show stars Cedric "The Entertainer" (Original Kings Of Comedy) and Niecy Nash (Reno 911). It's about a former soul singer who left his singing career and pursue his true calling, Man Of God. The church he preaches at used to be ran by his father, played by John Beasley, who decides to retire from the ministry.
After checking out the pilot, I felt that Cedric and Niecy may be on to a good thing. They are very funny and their supporting cast are great. This show falls in like with TV Land's other shows with more or very seasoned actors doing the old school quirky sit-coms.
Other original TV Land shows include: Happily Divorced w/ Fran Drescher (The Nanny), The Exes w/ Donald Faison (Scrubs) & Wayne Knight (Seinfeld), Retired at 35 w/ George Segal & Jessica Walter (Archer) and their big show, Hot In Cleveland w/ Valerie Bertinelli (One Day at a Time), Jane Leeves (Fraiser), Wendy Malick (Just Shoot Me) & Betty White.
The Soul Man could turn out to be a good show depending on how well the writing continues. Good luck Cedric and Niecy!
Later.........
