LIVING SINGLE SEASON 3 THE SHAKE UP SERIES
Art is inspired by other art, but props must given where it’s due.On June 4, 2012, the series was renewed for its third season. Pointing out the stark similarities is no shade to the brilliance of SATC. Regine was the lesser successful Samantha with sex-positivity ideas of dating. Later we’re introduced to SATC’s Miranda who is also a cynical, tough, feminist thinking attorney. Is it mere coincidence that our beloved Khadijah was a successful Editor-in-Chief in 1993 then along comes fan favorite Carrie Bradshaw, a successful sex columnist in 1998? There’s also Max, the cynical feminist attorney. A closer look at the types of characters on LS and SATC you’ll see they are (coincidentally?) similar.

But the thunderous applause for SATC will convince you it was a completely new concept. The show’s tackling of issues like race, sexism, sexual harassment and love with a predominantly black female cast was wildly unprecedented.
LIVING SINGLE SEASON 3 THE SHAKE UP TV
One has to wonder if Living Single’s lack of recognition for being revolutionary TV as one of the first series of its kind for black women, rarely receives its just because it was a black show. Living Single and Girlfriends have left sad holes in TV for the 20something/30something black women living in big cities with big dreams. Girlfriends resonated with so many-lasting eight years-because black women were desperate for nuanced “positive” representation. In 2000 UPN’s Girlfriends filled the representation void of a circle of black female friends that had been missing since LS left the air. Had LS not existed SATC may not have been possible. When Living Single wrapped its final season in 1998, Sex and the City debuted, later becoming a major hit for the network. “In a 90s kind of world” black women had depictions of themselves on the tube, which at best made them proud and at worst at least didn’t cause them to shake their heads in shame. We’re mostly left with Olivia Pope (Kerry Washington) in Scandal. As much as we take pleasure in reliving the best moments of one of our favorite quartets, one can’t help but to think of the regression in black female representation on TV. The show marked its 20 th anniversary last month.
