Tracie Ellis Ross came up with the idea of making a prequel tv show about Rainbow when she was a kid. I thought it was a great idea, because we get to see her before she met Dre, and see her family before they got older.
I'm watching this show so far, and I love it. It's grounded in reality, unlike Grown-ish is, and is a great spin-off/prequel to Black-ish. I think Arica Himmel is a great casting for Bow. She looks like a young Tracie Ellis Ross. Who knows? If she plays her cards right, Ms. Himmel could be a big star in the right way.
There's only one problem I have so far and hear me out. Bow's mom Alicia is played by Tika Sumpter. And that's great, I love Tika, but her older counterpart on Black-ish is nowhere near he skin complexion. So either she got plastic surgery, or someone in the casting department needs to be fired. But that's a minor complaint.
