It's a sad day in Toon Town when Kyle Barker is shopping at Marshalls. Did anyone else catch the TJ Maxx/ Marshalls commercial with the people walking through the mall singing a semi-Christmas carol about spending too much? For some reason, my eyes always focus in on the token Black person in every commercial, and this time my mouth dropped to see TC Carson aka Kyle Barker from Living Single.
It always hurts to see a beloved actor fall from grace and end up doing commercials--especially a Black one. Living Single was Fox's bread and butter and one point, but no one seemed to take off from that show besides Queen Latifah. I don't blame anyone for it; Showbiz is brutal. I think I would rather someone disappear altogether than go backwards down the acting ladder...then again, a brother's gotta eat.
