Another great one is Baltimore Or The Steadfast Tin Soldier and the Vampire by

I really disliked BET for a long time, because they pretty much wasted the
opportunity to create an incredible conduit for all types of black
entertainment. (a couple of exceptions but not many) Compare it to Telemundo
that has several long running shows and award winning news programming. BET
I agree. And if you're going to put in women for just being sexy but nothing
else, then put in someone like the female fighter pilot from Buck Rogers in
the 25th Century (Erin Gray).
And hell, put Seven of Nine on the list for overt sexuality over Megan Fox!

Agreed. I've long lamented the sad fact that the Latin-themed cable channels
far exceed the Black ones in terms of drama and variety. Of course, maybe it
can be argued that Latinoes in this hemisphere have more collective viewing
