ALLBLK’s New Sitcom Millennials Chronicles Young Black Friends Searching For Success In LA

Legendary TV Producer Bentley Kyle Evans famed for “Martin” and “The Jamie Foxx Show” introduces  a new sitcom “Millennials” on ALLBLK. The series debuted yesterday February 25, 2021 and will run for six weeks with a new episode every Thursday at noon EST.  ALLBLK is a streaming platform where Black creators can tell authentic Black stories. During the virtual CTAM Winter 2021 Press Tour, General Manager of ALLBLK and WeTV Brett Dismuke said this of the streaming network, “While we’ve updated our brand, what remains unwavering is our commitment to representation and identifying new and emerging talent both in front of and behind the camera.” Subscribers can expect a wide range of curated Black content spanning across genres and generations from movies to tv shows to short series, ALLBLK has it all. 

The six-episode series “Millennials” follows the lives of four roommates as they navigate the chaos of being young, finding success, and finding themselves in Los Angeles, California. The hilarious group of friends includes a business student (Kyle Massey), a YouTuber (Philip Bolden), a college dropout (Aaron Grady), and a personal trainer (Keraun “King Keraun” Harris), and their aspiring actress neighbor from across the hall (Teresa “Topnotch” Celeste). The star studded cast will bring a sense of nostalgia for viewers that are fans of “That’s So Raven” and “Everybody Hates Chris.”

 

Viewers can expect a light hearted relatable comedy that reflects their own Black experience being freshly out of college and finding their place in the world. Bentley Kyle Evans says the show is, “The Black experience from a male’s perspective hasn’t really been seen in a fellowship kind of scenario, we wanted to give a message of what that black experience was like, like that dorm room experience. With this ensemble piece, I  think we’re able to capture that in a very unique way.”
