Jennifer Freeman “My Wife and Kids”

I know a lot of black people dug this show but I couldn’t get over the way the kids talked to their parents. It seemed like they let them get away with entirely too much. In addition to all that, Jennifer Freeman, played the role of the oldest daughter Claire was just not a good look for the show. If you remember she was a replacement daughter. I guess the people behind the scenes didn’t consider colorism either because the original Claire, played by Jazz Raycole, was darker complected, intelligent, tough chick and Jennifer was lighter, still smart but super ditzy.
