If you able to watch it again, you'll see what I mean.

Being the main character in his own show can lead to different supporting characters. They can add a cousin or brother into the mix. Doesn’t every white person on TV have a “token black friend?”

Which tells me that he was married at some point. Which also tells me that he could be drawn in a lighter skin tone and pass for white. Don't they say black people don't get married and pop out babies all over the place? The moment they have this dude being hit with child support from a bunch of jump offs and sitting on welfare and receiving a monthly government handout then I'll start looking at Fox and questioning their motives.
