Could you watch a black sitcom in the 80s or 90s and not see this dude?
- Thread starter Slayven
- Start date
- Weekend Era
Casting directors probably had his agent on speed dial for when they needed a black actor.

Mofo was a acting ronin, no long term roles, he was just passing through
Bumper Robinson

How else was the audience to know the kid goes hard at studying?

But did anyone else watch it? I think it was just Dwayne and Jasmine guy at that point
Yeah they were the only main characters to last all 6 seasons but a few others were there from S2 to the end. At least we can watch
Expected Bumper Robinson and left satisfied.
...was the kiss of death of every Black sitcom he came on.

I'd wear it today.
EDIT: And I am not black, attractive, or intelligent.
Just looked him up. The dude is still fucking everywhere- tv, movies, animation, video games.
Good shit.
Good shit.
Was just looking at this and yeah, he's been in tons of stuff as a VA. A notable amount of DC animated projects too!

Yes. Yes I am. Popped up on the last season of Living Single and I knew that show was for the ancestors.

I was going to mention Peyton List (not the younger Peyton List) but Summer Glau is probably a better comparable.
Pretty sure I actively avoided that show growing up. I was about Fresh Prince, Martin, and the Jaimie Foxx show. Also Two and a Half kids.
And then My Cousin Skeeter, My brother and I, and Smart Guy.
To answer Slayven's question, no. However, if he shows up on that show, that show is getting cancelled.
Off the top of my head and lookin at his IMDB, it looks like he doesn't have credits in Roc, Martin (Lawrence show) and Parent 'Hood

I just had a "Oh shit, it's that dude" moment. I did not know his name, but I remember seeing him on lots of shows.
He seems to be the go-to voice for Sam Wilson/Falcon in video games which is cool is hell
