Hollywood Only Wants One Black Show at a Time with Chris Murphy and Ian Olympio
This week, Ira sits down with Vanity Fair staff writer Chris Murphy and TV writer Ian Olympio to ask why Hollywood suddenly feels like an opp against Black people. They unpack the post-peak-TV contraction, the endless pipeline of “new white geniuses,” the rise of micro-dramas, the swirl industrial complex, and why Black characters on white shows so rarely get an inner life of their own. Plus: Tyler Perry, the A24 Blacks, and the one thing a Black TV character would never do — put a suitcase on the bed.
