HOW MUCH PRESTIGE DID COMMUNITIES OF COLOR GARNER FROM PRESTIGE TV?

Rumor has it that the tenure of Prestige TV is coming to an end. Shows like Mad Men, OZ, the Sopranos, Breaking Bad, and the Wire were said to have elevated the small screen to the same heights as the Big screen with networks like HBO, AMC and Showtime leading the way. Many careers in front of and behind the camera were made during this golden age. But how many individuals from our many communities of color were able to gain a toehold? Join the Blerdsassins Next Door at 6p PST/ 8p CST and 9p EST to discuss some of our favorite (and not so favorite) Prestige Programs and whether they elevated any members of our communities of color.
