Tracy Morgan is starring in TBS ‘The Last O.G.’ with Girls Trip breakout star, Tiffany Haddish, and he is making it clear that this is not a black show, but a show about second chances, and redemption.
The actor made it clear that ‘The Last O.G.’ is not a black show, but a show about humanity, second chances, and redemption.
“This is not a black show,” Morgan ecplained. “This is a show about humanity, second chances, redemption. This isn’t a black show. … I want to transcend that. Black people aren’t the only ones who live there; there are white people coming home from prison too. I want to deal with the humanity.”
The Last O.G. centers on Tray, an ex-con who is shocked to see just how much the world has changed when he is released from prison after a 15-year stint. Returning to his gentrified Brooklyn neighborhood, he discovers that his ex-girlfriend (Girls Trip star, Tiffany Haddish) has married a successful white man (Superstore‘s Ryan Gaul) who is helping raise the twins Tray never knew existed. Wanting nothing more than to connect with and support his kids, Tray falls back on the skills he learned in prison to make ends meet. Cedric the Entertainer and Allen Maldonado (black-ish) also co-star.
The show premieres on TBS, Tuesday, Oct. 24 at 10/9c with back-to-back episodes, and then airs weekly at 10:30 pm.
