Why do I want to write the 2nd comment on Town Bizzness? I am not sure - almost everything that could be possibly said about it has been said. But like so many other people who wrote comments, I was and am profoundly moved by this simple and eloquent depiction of hope and friendship and redemption.
The only other series I have ever seen that effects me as strongly is From The Bottom To The Top. Both series leave me feeling cleaner for having watched them.
I didn't intend to see this series at all: I do not like Hip Hop Music Videos and I don't normally watch them. I work at a branch library and one day as I was checking Town Bizzness out to one of our older patrons, she said to me, "Whenever I feel down or depressed, I check out this series and watch it and it always makes me feel better." At the time, I thought that was very strange. One day there was nothing on TV except things I absolutely would not watch under any circumstance or things that I had seen too many times already. I remembered what she said, so I watched it. I have watched it many many times since then and it gets better with every showing.
No action, no special effects - just people talking to each other and Music Videos.
