NETFLIX TO BRING BACK BLACK FAMILY-FRIENDLY SITCOMS

Netflix has done it again. The popular streaming service has secured the rights to stream some of the best family-friendly sitcoms from the ’90s and 2000s and we are definitely here for it! Shows such as Moesha, Sister Sister, and The Parkers should be right at the top of your watch list! 

Moesha (debuts August 1st): Moesha originally aired on UPN from January 23, 1996, to May 14, 2001. The series stars R&B singer Brandy Norwood as Moesha Denise Mitchell, a high school student living with her family in the Leimert Park neighborhood of Los Angeles.
