*Would you believe that the Full Force “Unsung” episode has become the highest rated episode in TV One history? Well, that’s a fact, Jack.
In a memo to Full Force, Jubba Seyyid TV One’s Sr. Dir. Programming and Production conformed that fact:
“Hey Fellas, You did it!! The final numbers from your episode are in. The Full Force ‘Unsung’ episode is now the highest rated episode in TV One History. Congratulations gentlemen. You said your show would do it … and it did.”
And being Mr Congeniality, Full Force’s Bow Legged Lou took to Facebook to spread the word and send shout outs and thanks to all those responsible for their history making episode:
“Well on behalf of my beloved brothers & cousin’s (Paul Anthony,B-Fine,Baby Gerry aka DJ Geenius,Curt-t-t & Shy Shy aka J-R)….we are humbled & so appreciative.

I’m not surprised. I wonder if they included the rerun numbers in the total. I caught it on the rerun.
Forgot and missed Millie Jackson’s last night so, I’ll have to catch that one on the rerun too.

I don’t think Millie Jackson’s came on last nite – it was most likely one of the usual typos EUR has become known for…unless they ran her’s instead of Ray Parker, Jr.’s…not sure. I was real interested in what Millie had to say, though.

Umm, er, t.eye, what do you mean by “it was most likely one of the usual typos EUR has become known for …?”
For the record t. eye, there’s a HUGE difference between a typo and an inaccurate statement.
Maybe it’s not so obvious to you, but a typo is when something is spelled wrong. An inaccurate statement speaks for itself.
And yes, for the record, we make typos and and always WILL. It’s the nature of the beast. Although we do our best not to, we do make mistakes. Lots of them. Here’s another thing t.eye, there is no perfect news publication. NONE, NOWHERE.
That said, our report that Millie Jackson’s “Unsung” episode would air last night was NOT an inaccurate statement. It DID air last night at the time we said it would. And that’s a FACT.
So it seems you thought wWRONG, t.eye. (oops, we made another typo)

Full Force makes Unsung history, has become the highest rated episode so far…..really?? I’ve never been a BIG fan of Full Force but I have enjoyed most of their work. Lisa Lisa & Cult Jam/Full Force “I Wonder If I Take You Home” is still one of my favorite jams to date.

EURPublisher, I really appreciate your response. I made those particular comments – partially – with hopes that maybe a staff member would see them and take it as an admonishment, of sorts, to do better about the typo situation that lingers across the EUR board and in other widespread print media outlets (it wasn’t always like it is now). And you’re correct– a typo is not the same as an inaccurate statement (although they’re both inaccuracies)…I thank you for bringing that to my attention. But, before correcting me, be certain that you’ve read my words “accurately”. I said, “I don’t think Millie Jackson’s came on last nite…” which is not the same as saying “it didn’t”. I said, “…it was most likely…typos…” which is not the same as saying “it (definitely) was”. And the most important thing I said that should have explained my position on it – fully – was “unless they ran her’s instead of Ray Parker, Jr.’s…not sure”– and that is exactly what happened according to those who said they watched it. However, the error lies with the cable company as well as my “thinking” not EUR. Still, though, the kinds of typos and mistakes that seemingly run rampant thru print media – now – is undoubtedly the “nature of the beast”, as you say, but it’s not the nature of journalism and definitely not the nature of professionalism. In peace…
