So making fun of stereotypes is frowned upon now?

This is something that will rustle my jimmies.

You mean they aren't making new episodes of a show that ended in 1994?

The only reason I knew it was on Centric is because I dvr it.

I just think it shows the double standard, where a show with a car named the General Lee gets pulled off the air, but a show that blatantly delivers stereotypes still lives on.

Don't worry guys, the Wayans brothers are safe. Only shows that fit the agenda are being pulled.
