Netflix has axed comedy series All About the Washingtons.
The series created by Jeremy Bronson (The Mindy Project, Speechless, Late Night with Jimmy Fallon) saw Joey Washington Joseph Simmons (aka rapper Rev Run) & wife Justine Simmons play fictionalised versions of themselves with teen actors.
After Joey decides to retire from a long career as hip-hop royalty, his wife Justine takes advantage of the opportunity to pursue a career of her own now that Joey is available to focus on raising the kids and keeping the house in order. The couple’s kids are portrayed by rising stars Kiana Ledé, Nathan Anderson, Leah Rose Randall and Maceo Smedley.
The series only premiered in August.

Disappointing as I rather enjoyed it. It is rather similar to other African-American comedies like Are We There Yet, House of Payne and Meet the Browns and I had hoped that if it went well Netflix would buy the rights to these shows as they have never gotten an Australian premiere (some 10 years old). But if Washington’s was meant to be a test than I guess my dreams aren’t going to come true…
I can’t believe this crap made it through 10 episodes! Why is it that these people think that their lives are interesting? You picked up a football or a microphone – so what?
