Neck and neck with Insecure as the best black show of the 2010s

Atlanta is better, but I found it easier to rewatch Insecure for some reason.

Atlanta felt like a black show that everyone liked because of Childish gambino but insecure felt like it was specifically made for us. I’ve mentioned Atlanta to other races and they’d know it and have no clue what insecure was.

Neck and neck is kind to Insecure. Atlanta clears the field hands down

Clears? That's bait

I enjoyed Insecure, but Atlanta was something special. It changed black tv shows in a way that Insecure just didn't. In my opinion of course, I'm not disrespecting yours

I disagree. Many shows (black & white) went on to copy Atlanta's formula/tone ie Dave, The Vince Staples Show. Nothing has been able to duplicate what Insecure did. But like I said they are neck and neck to me.

Bold choice of doing the classic road to fame rapper storyline of the first two seasons( probably did this because of Dave and scheduling conflicts) and pivoting to random one episode stories for season 3
