Members pauleywood Posted March 9, 2005 Members Report Share Posted March 9, 2005 In that episode where Will bets Carlton he can't spend a weekend in compton, I'm watching the episode right now and they've edited it to Cobb Street. Anyone else noticed this change. I'm wondering why they changed it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin Hero1 Posted March 10, 2005 Admin Report Share Posted March 10, 2005 i watched that episode on the dvd..and i didnt think it had changed? :poke: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WesSyde Posted March 10, 2005 Report Share Posted March 10, 2005 i'm confused! maybe Cobb Street is being more specific 2 the location of Compton. as in Cobb Street is a street in Compton that Carlton must stay at. i don't remember it being any different on TV than it is on the DVD :dunno: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scyhigh99 Posted March 10, 2005 Report Share Posted March 10, 2005 (edited) From jumptheshark.com... "Does anyone remember the episode when Carlton was hanging out in Compton. He and Will made a bet that he couldn't last there. He ended up staying. They kept referring to Carlton going to Compton and hanging out in Compton, and Will and Aunt Vivian, and the rest of the family was acting like he was hanging out in a Crack House. He was hanging at Jazz's apartment with all these so called hardened street guys. He ended up giving the dudes he was hanging with investment advice and dressing like a gangbanger. He was even telling them what to do like where he was going to sleep. If that wasn't bad enough, when the episode re ran, he wasn't hanging in Compton anymore. They edited the tape to say something else. I guess the people in Compton got mad, and rightfully so. Sometimes, I wonder if I'm the only person that noticed that."

J-o-e Posted March 10, 2005 Report Share Posted March 10, 2005 That Cobb Street u was on about, it was a mogather park i think it was called, saw that episode a few days ago i dont know why it was edited...intresting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scyhigh99 Posted March 11, 2005 Report Share Posted March 11, 2005 (edited) Like the jumptheshark website said, it was probably edited b/c people, especially ppl from Compton, found it offensive. I understand it's a comedy and it was just a stupid storyline to accomodate lots of Carlton jokes, but it implied that it's nearly impossible to survive in that neighborhood for even one weekend. For families growin up there, I mean... that's not cool to make light of and exaggerate a community's problems like that. And again, it's a comedy, but the stereotyped "Compton-type" gangster characters in that episode were so over the top too Edited March 11, 2005 by scyhigh99 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
