Right! All these years later I stay up in this show I love. From funny memes to twitter (now 😒 X) beefs over Friends comparisons. 😅 Come on, just give us the goods on the cast and that’s cool. 🤷🏽♂️
Friends had a long gestation period. Cameron Crowe still maintains that it began when Warner Bros. TV approached him about adapting his movie Singles into a TV show. He wasn't interested, and he maintains Crane and Kauffman took the concept and ran with it. In any event, they started developing Friends in 1993. They couldn't rip off Living Single as a concept.
For me, writing Kyle out was what killed the show. And the marriage is Sinclair and Overton. Seemed like they only brought Kyle back when Regine left. They cheated us out of Regine’s fabulous wedding.
Don't forget Queen's magnificent performance on Broadway and fantastic lead role in The Last Holiday! Amazing movie, she is so graceful and kind. All the ladies are just beautiful, I loved that show! Thanks for the memories!
I am still waiting to see the scene that took the show off the air! I immediately suspected that this was just a trick to get you to watch, and it was! @@pamelafields8012
I noticed the difference with John’s eyes when he guest starred on The Parkers, but never knew about the accident. Thank God he made it out of that accident alive.❤
So, what was the infamous scene?? Also, Erika Alexander does a lot in the realm of politics! She's amazing! Kim Fields did a lot of work with Nickelodeon. All of them have done very well.
When you could've gotten subscribers, but you choose to have a one-time viewers. You're going to get that one time interaction because people complaining about your clickbait but once they put you on the "do not recommend list" you'll understand why your channel isn't growing. Good luck
Honey, getting all negative responses and thumbs down from using clickbait to get people to come to your Channel is shady and dishonest of you. If you're going to have a channel put some put honesty and integrity into your work, and I'm sure things will take off for you. Another thing, who cares how much they're worth. The rest of the information that you provided was good, very interesting, and enjoyable.
I was sitting in front of my television every week for all of the years that Living Single was on! This show stood out and was different than any show featuring Black actors at that time and before.
OMG!!! Thank you so much! I have been watching HOMEWORTHY trying to find all of our black interior designers. Continue to be blessed and have a wonderful weekend.
Ok I know this ain’t gonna matter to alotta ppl, but the host misspoke about a character T.C. Played in God Of War. She said “Krater”, the character’s names is Kratos. Probably wouldn’t matter so much to me if he didn’t play the hell out of that role for 6 straight games
What was the infamous scene? Plus Kim Coles was fired from In Living Color because of her weight. She talked about it numerous times and was really hurt by it.
@@PamelaSpencer-ys3qp yes body shaming. Would be surprised a lot of actors were fired for weight gain from a lot of tv shows throughout the years. Especially back then. Now people can get sued
Actress did try to sue. But were unable to do so because they signed a contract before they became famous on a TV sitcom. That they would lose or maintain the same weight. They couldn’t get fatter. Like Men could as an Actor 🙄🙄
That's what was said, but she hadn't gained weight yet. So, that's bull. I was told that it had to do with Keenan Wayans trying to get with her, but she refused. And, that the brothers wanted to make their sister Kim the female star. But, it all worked out for her. She and John Henton were so good and convincing together, much like Isabel Sanford and Sherman Helmsley.
I liked the show greatly when it aired. that said, I sat through this waiting to learn of what an "Infamous scene" that supposedly ended the show. Unless I missed what it was, it seems that it was never mentioned.
🤔 "Sensational headlines can be misleading. While exploring challenges faced by shows is valid, implying a single scene caused 'Living Single' to go off-air oversimplifies complex decisions. Let's delve into content responsibly and consider the broader context. 📺🤝 #MediaAccuracy"
This show was ahead of it's time. My favorite episode ever is the one where an old friend shows up and reveals that her husband (who was one of the girls ex's) gave her AIDS. That episode had so many powerful scenes and covered topics that NO ONE wanted to talk about at the time.
Kim Fields started out much younger than when she was on Good Times. She did commercials, TV movies and starred on Baby I'm Back with Demond Eilson and Denise Nicholas.
Kim Fields started on “Facts of Life” sitcom TV show. Kim’s Mom starred on Good Times, being, Janet Jackson’s abusive Mom. Your right that Kim Fields started out in commercials on to TV and the big screen.
She was one of the kids that rode the bus that Florida drove, she wasn't a regular. There's a snippet of the scene where she has the kids march around to keep warm because the bus broke down.
This video was great. I really don't understand the need for the clickbait title. You did great work. Please rename the video. I will gladly recommend this to many people.
I must have forgotten Kim fields on GOOD TIMES though I do remember that HER mother, Chip Fields, played the role of the abusive mother of Penny (Janet Jackson). I do not recall Kim Fields on Good Times, plus she had her own show. And LIVING SINGLE was a successful show before FRIENDS came on the scene.
She did appear on Good Times, I think for one episode which was when Florida was driving the school bus and her and a few of the school kids were stranded in a winter storm…Kim Fields was one of those kids
Good Times did a fast switch a roo of Kim Fields to Janet Jackson in the same Episode. Kim’s biological Mom, that did more two episodes on Good Times ended up being Penny’s (Janet Jackson) abusive Mom. Kim Fields actually got her biggest break on “Facts of Life” TV sitcom show. Back in the late 1970’s. Facts of Life show was only popular to young girls who were going to “Private Boarding Schools “whose parents that could afford to send their children to a Boarding School “. Kim Fields was the lone Black girl on the TV sitcom.
@@aida9988 I think I do remember Kim then Janet as Penny. I definitely remember Kim’s mom Chip playing the abusive mother. I watched Kim on Facts of Life religiously cause that was my era and we were happy to see black people playing roles on TV. I was in a private school ‘67-71 for middle school yet did not so much watch because I identified to have attended a white private school, mostly watched a show because a black person played a role.
I'm at 8:21 of a 9 and half minute video and she still hasn't told us the scene that supposedly took the show off the air. Girl, BYE!!! Disliked and will never subscribe.
I came to the comments to see if I missed it. I guess everybody else missed it too. Change the title because that's the only reason I watched this video!!
Oh my goodness , first of all congradulation and i love your speech and you made me cry but they were happy tears and may the lord continue blessing you and your family.
Its so hard to believe this the 1st woman I ever had a crush on. Them daisy duke's in U.N.I.T.Y 😂 But since set it off came out she been big bro to me so its love 💯
I knew it. LOL. We all for over a dozen of years Lathifa was gay !!! Especially after her get-down scene in-Set It Off. LOL.Plus,never saw her booed up with a male actor or other men,then never been married either. To a man,not very hard to figure out.But,she dates/mates who she wants to.
Just like someone else said, "I sat through this waiting to learn what "infamous scene" supposedly ended the show, but it was never mentioned."
Think this is what is known as "clickbait".
*CLICKBAIT for Views* & Likes that Bring in TH-cam Money.💰 *No Scene EVER Took "Living Single"* Or ANY Show OFF the Air.
Thank you I just clicked off
EXACTLY! I HATE, REALLY HATE THAT KIND OF Sh--t!
Thank you!!!! You just save me 9:14 minutes of my time. Wishing you a wonderful New Year!
I read the comments first as I always do, and they say the "infamous scene" was never mentioned in this video. Thanks, I didn't waste my time.
No such scene exists
Same
Exactly
🎯
yup....same here.
They didn't need to click bait us! Fans of Living Single would've clicked on the post simply because it's about the cast of Living Single!! 😮
Exactly
Right! All these years later I stay up in this show I love. From funny memes to twitter (now 😒 X) beefs over Friends comparisons. 😅
Come on, just give us the goods on the cast and that’s cool. 🤷🏽♂️
💯
I agree
Seriously
They weren't like Friends. They were the BLUEPRINT for Friends.
Friends was like THEM. Not the other way around!
Friends had a long gestation period. Cameron Crowe still maintains that it began when Warner Bros. TV approached him about adapting his movie Singles into a TV show. He wasn't interested, and he maintains Crane and Kauffman took the concept and ran with it. In any event, they started developing Friends in 1993. They couldn't rip off Living Single as a concept.
@@puremercury BUT they did rip off several episodes... bar for bar. Line for line.
Living Single reminds me more of Sex and the City. It never seemed anything like the show Friends to me.
@@das_littWhat episodes and which bar for bar lines? I need proof/examples before I even consider believing this.
For me, writing Kyle out was what killed the show. And the marriage is Sinclair and Overton. Seemed like they only brought Kyle back when Regine left. They cheated us out of Regine’s fabulous wedding.

all facts synclair n overton sucked after they were married
And Trip wasn't a good addition.
@@tiffanyt7444 I hated his character! UGH
Don't forget Queen's magnificent performance on Broadway and fantastic lead role in The Last Holiday! Amazing movie, she is so graceful and kind. All the ladies are just beautiful, I loved that show! Thanks for the memories!
And Just Wright with common ❤
Let's not forget Chicago

The last holiday is my favorite movie :)
Queen's on screen resume is SIGNIFICANTLY LONGER than what this video stated.
Your information is great, so there is no reason to try and trick people into viewing your channel. Your title is very misleading.
I agree...as long as your info is valid, we'll watch. But the click bait may make me stroll on by
I am still waiting to see the scene that took the show off the air! I immediately suspected that this was just a trick to get you to watch, and it was! @@pamelafields8012
Some of the info here is wrong.
I won't watch this again,thata for sure!!
Thank you!
I noticed the difference with John’s eyes when he guest starred on The Parkers, but never knew about the accident. Thank God he made it out of that accident alive.❤
I had never heard he was in an accident either.
So what happened?
Right!!!! 😂
That's what I was waiting for. I hate these click baited titles.
@@lareinelester685Thanks for the warning. I'm out.
Exactly! What happened? What scene? (Sigh)
Right! Kyle is also a jazz singer.
Thank u, comment section!! You just save me 9 minutes 36 seconds searching for an answer that wasn't there.❤
So, what was the infamous scene?? Also, Erika Alexander does a lot in the realm of politics! She's amazing! Kim Fields did a lot of work with Nickelodeon. All of them have done very well.

@@brownboutique8446tell that to Barbara Eden... 😊❤
And Kim Fields works with Tyler Perry. All of the work these people do and they don't have any money?
They sure TRICK YOU 😮 TO READ THEIR ARTICLES.WASTING MY TIME. I WOULD'VE READ IT ANYWAY.
When you could've gotten subscribers, but you choose to have a one-time viewers. You're going to get that one time interaction because people complaining about your clickbait but once they put you on the "do not recommend list" you'll understand why your channel isn't growing. Good luck
That part lol
The information in the video was interesting. I really feel the title of the video was click bait.
Fun fact: first season of living single used family matters set.
Honey, getting all negative responses and thumbs down from using clickbait to get people to come to your Channel is shady and dishonest of you.

So what was the infamous scene?
RGHT
That will be revealed in Part 813.
Click bait
🤷🏽???
There isn't one
Erika Alexander hasn’t aged a day. She looks amazing
the only thing that shocked me here was finding out Latifah once had a boyfriend
Did she?
@@williejohnson5172 🤭
She had more than 1 boyfriend. She was sexually assaulted n never looked back at men
😂😂😂 4 REAL
Hahhaha
You’re wild.
Can I have my 9:36 second back out of my life 😒
Right
Don't 4get the 4 commercials I had 2 wait 5s 2 SKIPP!! 🤭
Terrence Carson acts in some weird sounding movies
I was sitting in front of my television every week for all of the years that Living Single was on! This show stood out and was different than any show featuring Black actors at that time and before.
I wished that the title wasn’t misleading… you provided great information!!!
You failed to mention that Queen Latifah‘s current project is equalizer
Queen Latifah lost a lot of weight.
Damn queen Latifah went through a lot while filming
OMG!!! Thank you so much! I have been watching HOMEWORTHY trying to find all of our black interior designers. Continue to be blessed and have a wonderful weekend.
Ok I know this ain’t gonna matter to alotta ppl, but the host misspoke about a character T.C. Played in God Of War. She said “Krater”, the character’s names is Kratos. Probably wouldn’t matter so much to me if he didn’t play the hell out of that role for 6 straight games
Yes, I use to play that game!!
Ty for clarification
I came here just for this cause who is krater? kRATOS!!! To me TC's voice is up there with Keith David!! Love them both
That part .. which scene? You never shared. Please add or do an update. I’m curious .. ❤
You forgot the mini series Momma Flora’s family where Erika Alexander played the younger version of Cisly Tyson and Queen Latifah played her daughter.
You mean Queen Latifah played the grand daughter
Also when Kim Fields played in Baby I'm Back and Good Times before The Facts of Life.
@evanthomas4468 she played in roots the next generation as Alex Haley daughter along with Debbie Allen as his wife
SINCLAIR Is A Trip, SHE Be Having me Dying Laughing Lol Lol Lol
She was my fave!
@@mwright80 YEP !!
Erika Alexander was 23 going on 24 when Living Single first aired on Fox TV. She also appeared on Wu Tang: An American Saga as RZA's mom Linda.
Don't forget she started on the Cosby show as cousin pam
@@errolthomas9426 I did not know 24 came after 23🤣🤣
Just glad I’m not the only one that got here and left empty handed
What was the infamous scene? Plus Kim Coles was fired from In Living Color because of her weight. She talked about it numerous times and was really hurt by it.
That's crazy because she gained weight
@@PamelaSpencer-ys3qp yes body shaming. Would be surprised a lot of actors were fired for weight gain from a lot of tv shows throughout the years. Especially back then. Now people can get sued

Love living single and hearing anything about them. Clickbait wasn’t necessary. We would have still watched it 🤦🏾♀️
This is a nice run down, but the title is misleading clickbait.
It was the very beginning of the video that matched the title
😂 true
I enjoyed the editing of your video!
I loved this show, never missed a episode. The cast were really good at their craft and talented.
I clicked on this video paused the ad and looked at the comments glad I did
Ok, she didn't give the reason Living Single went off the air? Was the title "clickbait"?
Yes it was, and I'm pissed off that they wasted my time. I gave this video a thumbs down.
I enjoyed learning more about the wonderful cast.
I liked the show greatly when it aired. that said, I sat through this waiting to learn of what an "Infamous scene" that supposedly ended the show. Unless I missed what it was, it seems that it was never mentioned.
Me too. I didn't hear or see anything that had to do with the title off this video.
it wasn't mentioned at all i waited until the end
Poor journalism skills
*No Scene EVER Took "Living Single"* Or ANY Show OFF the Air. This is *CLICKBAIT for Views* & Likes that Bring in TH-cam
Vote DOWN click-bait
I still watch Living Single until this day. Seasons 1 and 2 are my favorites. They've become a part of my own family. Love them all...
The click bait wasn’t necessary. This was good without that. I love them. And I loved this show!❤
Got to 2:21 minutes of this and realized it was never going to get to the point.

THE BEST SHOW EVER
I just want to say we will never know why the show was cancelled. Hopefully one day the real truth will come out ❤
This was one of my favorite shows. Living Single was the blueprint for Friends and Insecure and many other shows.
They didn't make the money friends and Seinfeld made nor fame
The show was given to another producer and they did an all white version. You probably can guess the show too. It was a BIG HIT.💯
Erica Alexander and Kim fields are both on another level of beauty.
My goodness - YES! I still have a crush on Erika Alexander!
Should’ve named it “All about the cast of Living Single” but good content. However, I agree with everyone. What show ended it?
Kim Fields started out much younger than when she was on Good Times. She did commercials, TV movies and starred on Baby I'm Back with Demond Eilson and Denise Nicholas.

@@aida9988 I thought so. I kept trying to remember Kim Fields on Good Times, but could only picture Kim Fields' Mom and Janet Jackson.
EXACTLY KIM NOT ON GOOD TIMES, JUST HER MOM CHIP FIELDS!!!
She was one of the kids that rode the bus that Florida drove, she wasn't a regular. There's a snippet of the scene where she has the kids march around to keep warm because the bus broke down.
Look around 6:40 - she wasn't really a regular, just a kid o Florida's bus.
This video was great. I really don't understand the need for the clickbait title. You did great work. Please rename the video. I will gladly recommend this to many people.
I still watch this show every weekend, I love watching the reruns, Maxine Shaw is a nut, they all are hallarious ❣️
I used to love watching this show. They all played so well off of each other.
What scene ? this didn't reveal anything.
I thought i was the only one who noticed
Just to clear some misinformation, Kim fields was not on Good Times, it was Janet Jackson

Title clickbait is getting outta hand. Did I miss the infamous scene or something??
Lol everyone still waiting for what happened 🤣 😂
I went to Bayside High School in Queens, NY with Sean Moon. He was a really, really cool dude.
9:22 if u gon post clout chasin content w/false titles at least pronounce the words right
Right because she said nothing about why the show ended ugh
It would like to know the infamous scene that took living single off the air...but it was nice to learn facts about the cast.
I'm at 8:21 of a 9 and half minute video and she still hasn't told us the scene that supposedly took the show off the air. Girl, BYE!!! Disliked and will never subscribe.
It never said why the show was taken off the air.

So what was the scene that ended the show? Nothing was said about it!
Loved Living Single!!!
Glad I hit the comments first🤦🏾♀️😂
Kim fields is only worth 6 mil? She's been a well known actress since she was a kid. What happened?
Your clickbait is on point!
It was a great show hands down
I'm so glad i ff through this.. literally nothing was said regarding the title. I pray you see this comment before you waste your time.
Ummm so what was the scene that got it canceled? I feel lied to...
But what was the infamous scene that took them down?!!! I didn’t hear mention of it.💕
Click bait titles with no related content in the video is why people give channels thumbs down
You can see the Queen in Hustle, but she currently has a starring role in the TV series the Equalizer streaming on Paramount +
Erica Alexandra could play Michelle Obama
Erika Alexander. That's how her name is spelled.
Sweet mabel and jahosaphat , I’m halfway through and I have lost confidence in finding out the mystery tonight. Peace and Love y’all! ✊🏽❤️ Goodnite.
Kratos lol. I didn’t know he was the voice. God of war is one of the best video game series ever. Christopher Judge is the voice now
CArson is in the Johnson on Bounce. He's a restaurant
Oh my goodness , first of all congradulation and i love your speech and you made me cry but they were happy tears and may the lord continue blessing you and your family.
Its so hard to believe this the 1st woman I ever had a crush on. Them daisy duke's in U.N.I.T.Y 😂 But since set it off came out she been big bro to me so its love 💯
Kim Fields was not a regular on Good Times. That was Janet Jackson. Other than that you did well !!
That is what I was thinking. She did play in The Facts of Life as Tootie.
Where was the scene? I went back and forth wondering what I missed 😅
I knew it. LOL. We all for over a dozen of years Lathifa was gay !!! Especially after her get-down scene in-Set It Off. LOL.Plus,never saw her booed up with a male actor or other men,then never been married either. To a man,not very hard to figure out.But,she dates/mates who she wants to.
I'm a true fan. Would have watched the whole of the video without the clickbait title.
Click the video, read the comments and clicked right back out at 0:05
your comment was clutch, thanks!
I should’ve done that, I just wasted so much time by listening to the video without clicking. These clickbait jawns get on my nerve
I just love Queen Latifah, and all the other cast as well.
Please check your facts some of your info is incorrect
I hate to mimic the other comments but the clickbait is an issue.
So did I miss something what happened to the scene that ended the show
Kim Fields was also a cast member on Baby, I'm Back while appearing on Good Times and Diff'rent Strokes. Also, Kim is officially divorced.
Click Bait!!! They never tell you what it was that brought Living Single off the air!!! BS!!! 💜💜💜
Click Bait and inaccuracies!!!
Living Single the last few years was not good. It changed so much
One of my favorites
I trusted you and sat through this video without looking at the comments and this is what I get????
9 minutes and thirty-six seconds I can never get back. Bored me to tears y’all.
Agreed! I learned nothing here.
Wow! Was waiting for the scene and it never came!!! Smh
Same
Queen Latifah did NOT go to Howard!
No she didn't but her character Kahdijah did.
Glad I went to the comments section first before playing the video save me 9min
Sexuality does not matter or come into play!
What was the "infamous scene"? Did I miss it?
