According to TheGrio Fox Network is looking into reviving the popular Showtime series Soul Food.
The original Soul Food series ran on Showtime from 2000 to 2004 and was a hit with viewers. According to the industry blog Fishbowl LA, Twentieth Century Fox is looking to capitalize on the African-American demographic.
Fishbowl LA says:
Now, Fox is looking to revamp the series for a new
generation. The project is still in the very early stages of
development, but executives at the company are said to be keen on it. It
isn't yet clear whether the new Soul Food would be for the Fox
broadcast network, or whether the company would try and sell it to other
channels.
The networks have been slow to create shows that target African-Americans, the audience is out there. Cable networks such as TBS, VH1, and BET have scored hits with original programming targeting African-Americans, and the web is exploding with quality shows each day. So it's smart for Fox, or any other network, to create well-written and well-acted shows that target black viewers.
Would you like to see this show come back??? Or what show would you like to see come back??
