Alexander has spoken about this, saying in an interview with Today, “We can’t say that back in the day, when that Black cast was in that show, including myself, that we had the same amount of branding and promotion, and leverage that they were putting on all the other shows underneath the same umbrella. It was totally different.”
She continued, saying, “You can see where the budgets went, where you invest, and where you don’t invest — where you take out. That needs to have not only a conversation but an investigation. Because if we can see it, we don’t have to repeat it. We can also know how and why those budgets went that way.”
For context, both Living Single and Friends were produced by Warner Bros.
