The UNTOLD Story of Moesha | Who Had Beef? Who Got Fired? Will There Be a Reboot?

Mo to the…E to the…That’s the refrain from the theme song to one of the most popular American sitcoms of the ‘90s and early 2000s. Moesha starred R&B singer Brandy Norwood as Moesha Denise Mitchell, an African-American teenager living with her middle-class family in the Leimert Park neighborhood of Los Angeles.

A Moesha reunion back in 2017 was definitely enough because a Moesha reboot will never happen without Lamont Bentley, and Yvette Wilson, a Martin reboot will never happen without Tommy Ford, a reboot of Fresh Prince will never happen without James Avery, a Bernie Mac Show will never happen without Bernie Mac, or even a Wayans Bros reunion won't happen without John Witherspoon

No thank you to the reboots. Reeboots these days are way to politically strict and the format would probably be another BET sitcom or tyler perry-esque drama. That reunion was definitely enough. Today’s gimmicks would probably ruin it.

[@AmoMe2009]

@@brandonbates9259yes I think shows like that can definitely have a reboot. Some of the discussion was ahead of its time and definitely fit the social intelligence today.

[@nataliemscrzysxycoolharris]

Not gonna lie but Kim Parker was the highlight of MOESHA[to me]. And THE PARKERS was a better show[to me]. Regardless of the backstage dramas they all came together and brought forth great shows.

[@AmoMe2009]

The first four seasons of Moesha(especially Season 2) was high quality television that infused great storytelling with R&B/Hip Hop vibes surrounding the show. It was exhilerating to watch the gang figure out how they were going to sneak into a concert, a club or road trip to see the performing artist of the week. One of most effortless and sophisticated episode of Moesha will always be when Moesha and Aaron are in his dorm room. Not only is the scene so damn smooth with the R&B instrumental lightly playing in the background, but it also is such a positive portrayal of intelligence and maturing of age. The philisophical diary entries at the opening and ending made the show unique and was a great work of art to watch.

[@josephclegg3562]

The rating did fall dramatically during and after season 5, but l do think the show needed a proper ending.

[@Chelaxim]

Just like with Alf, if ratings are down don't end a season with a dark cliffhanger in the hopes the network won't cancel it. The network doesn't care. For those who don't know about Alf, the final episode of Alf ends with him finally getting caught by federal agents. And if you remember they had plans to experiment on him and they said extreme heat, extreme cold and dissection.

I rewatch Moesha because everyone guest starred on the show, so I like the blast from the past.

[@truthonly-]

[@AmoMe2009]

Although the Season 2/3 theme song is the epitome of the 90s, the Season 4 theme song hands down is the dopest version of the show. From the quick choregraphic flow at the beginning, to the warm tone/color throughout, it was a solid piece to jam to every week on UPN. We Brandy fans know how smart the show was to enlist Darkchild(Rodney Jerkins) to create it at that particular time. 1998 was Brandy phenomenon!

[@brandonbates9259]

Wow I literally said the same thing about the season 4 intro in another comment lol

[@JuicyPopEntertainment]

That part!

[@MelaninKingg]

She’s my favorite singer and I agree. I think she herself at times look back at how she was in her youth and winces. But it’s kind of conflicting because you have some say all these great things about her character (retrospectively) and others like Kelly and Sherryl say she was flat out obnoxious etc. A lot of her shadow aspects seem to be situated around work. I give her some grace because of her professional stature at the time as well as her mother. I think there was a deep reason why she cut ties with her mother professionally. All in all, I think she has taken time to work on herself and seems to have such a bright energy these days. Probably from mending relationships she harmed in the past. Her personality and light are actually fitting her vocal if you look closely enough

[@AmoMe2009]

One the best Moesha story arcs will always be her storyline with Q “Quinton”. It was so realistic and well done especially in the second half of Season 2. Dee handled that scene very well when they caught Moesha “running away” at Q’s dad’s barbershop. That storyline also started the beginning of Moesha wanting independence and sparring with Frank Mitchell even when Q departed the series. The Frank vs Moesha episodes were great to watch in Season 3 and it made for a cool type of cliffhanger that summer of 1998. It also made for a good addition to her theoretical diary entries at the beginning and end of each episode. I personally don’t mind Frank’s strictness and it made the show unique as other teen show counterparts let “their” children get away with anything or simply say “you’re grounded” for that one little episode and that’s it. Frank was episodically strict which made the show unique. Even if you disagree, you can’t deny how great the Q/Moesha/Frank storyline was in Season 2.

[@thetruesoulofanaquarius9302]

Moesha was definitely one of my favorite shows as a kid/teen. ❤I will never forgive them for bringing Ray J on the show as a main character and the terrible series ending.😡

[@danavixen6274]

There should have been a well written conclusion. Moesha DESERVED far better!

[@donnelladams-b7r]

​@@danavixen6274How did it end.

[@josephclegg3562]

​@user-vp2sc8wd6t Moesha ended on a cliffhanger. Hakeem asked Mo to move in with him. Jerome finds a positive pregnancy test in Mo's dormroom bathroom and learns that either Mo or one of her dormroom roommates is pregnant, but it is never revealed who is pregnant due to the show's cancelation. I believe it probably was Alicia since she was gaining weight and having weird food cravings. Also, Lamont, a thug Dorian met in jail that saved him from being beat up by Big Norm, returned along with Big Norm and wanted half of his group as payment for saving his life in jail. Dorian refused to give Lamont half of his group, and Lamont kidnapped Myles. Myles fate was also unresolved because of the cancelation.

[@IceManLikeGervin]

Moesha was a very solid sitcom, with a very solid cast, until Dorian (played by Ray J) showed up and the storyline turned Frank Mitchell from a stand up father into an irresponsible adulterer who fathered a child outside his first marriage and basically abandon him (Dorian). In my mind.

[@darrellthomas884]

Seems like Brandy ruined her own show honestly. Things would be so different if they kept it as a comedy about a positive black family. If they wanted more serious and bad things happening, they could have easily given Frank's secret son storyline to a different character great videos. you got yourself a new subscriber

[@danavixen6274]

There'll never be another era of black sitcoms like the '90s. I was young, but we honestly didn't know how good we had it. But I'm happy that there's a renaissance happening again. Seasons 1 to 4 of _Moesha_ are gold. Then everyone switched over to _The Parkers_ although they made Kim's character more of an airhead and Nikki desperate for the Professor it's a classic show that still holds up today.

[@josephclegg3562]

I've heard those rumors, too, about the Moesha cliffhanger storylines were supposed to be resolved on The Parkers, but that doesn't make sense to me. Why would you resolved another shows storyline on another show? Sure The Parkers is the spinoff from Moesha, but they are totally different shows. Moesha's cliffhanger should have been resolved on Moesha, not The Parkers. Anyway, there was an episode on The Parkers that took place after Moesha ended where Hakeem visited Kim and Stevie to show them his new car, and during his visit he never said anything about Mo or their relationship or Myles. I'm assuming he and Mo are not together anymore and Myles must have been returned safely to the family.

I had no idea that Kim Field took Brandy under her wing to act for Moesha. Wow It would be amazing to see Brandy being the executive producer of Moesha. The direction of Frank being a father of Dorian screwed everything. It really put a damp of the premise of the show. Frank was so hard headed around Moesha and this storyline made Frank as a liar from the start. Brandy and Sheryl wow. Well, looking back, it made sense. Brandy's trademark was her braids. So if any costars wear braids, it will take away the attention and she won't be on the spotlight. Brandy was young and naive but she ended up apologizing to Sheryl. Life is too short. RIP to all the costars that passed away.

[@AGJ117]

Season 4 was the peak of this show. The later half of Season 5 was when things really started going downhill, and I couldn't even finish season 6.

[@waverider69420]

Literally just watched this 1 hour after upload 🥰

[@ItsN3rdz]

I hated that the mom didn’t have natural hair so it’s good to know why

[@talias7533]

I love Brandy so much

[@powersme]

So everyone had an issue with Brandy

[@ssanngkakkoii]

it didn’t make sense that frank was dorian’s father, he couldn’t even play a secret father well when dorian came on the show it didn’t even look like he was hiding the secret he was genuinely playing his uncle. that’s how we knew it was a last minute add to the script. the continuity isn’t even natural. i agree they completely disregarded Sheryl’s character as the wife, in the show the two shared everything. he was never a liar

I Like Neicy(Shar Jackson) That's My Baby😍😍😍

[@waynemaderejr.5286]

Love these videos. Great job

[@Angelmama22]

I found a lot of the cast annoying even as a kid. Frank, Dee, Miles and Mo were all annoying. I watched anyway tho lol Side note: RayJ ruins everything lol 😂

[@Tiajones333]

I think Brandy and Countess Vaughn had problems because Countess Vaughn became a fan-favorite that was probably one of the problems but I'm happy that her and Monique got their own spin-off show the parker I was so mad when they cancel so many black shows on UPN that was messed up and they did the same thing in the 90s with black shows I think it was Fox

[@Brit943]

I loved Moesha when I was in middle and early high school.. so many fine boys on that show lolol sooo much nostalgia… but when I watch it now as an adult, I get so annoyed with how annoying and entitled Moesha was. She was a nightmare for a parent lol.. and brandy in general seems as if she is not easy to get along with. I have heard about so many ppl having issues with her including Whitney Houston…

[@kerry-j4m]

Of course Brandy had issues and was hard to work with,she had-TOO-much success early in life and was-TOO-immature and childish to handle that success.

[@MariJamila]

Yeah I feel the same way. I always felt like she was bratty and it annoyed me so much lol.

[@KAlovesherkitties]

😂 rewatching Moesha made me realize the same thing about that character.

[@brownfudge2653]

I hated Ray J on this show. It makes me mad just seeing it again. They shouldn’t of done that

[@feliciakenny5152]

If they did a reboot I would differently watch it

[@mutantx2372]

The pregnancy test obviously belonged to Alicia.

[@Buff_Drio]

I don't blame whoever did that she was a gold digger but she was fine asf

[@brandonbates9259]

@@Buff_Drio Yea Alexis fields was fine in everything she played in. she was on Sister Sister,Kenan and Kel

[@shawntaythetvshowwomenthec9515]

You should do The Bernie Mac Show

[@mrserwin08]

When Ray J joined, I was out. Later came back and watched on Netflix, That last season was horrible.

Frank Mitchell: the worse TV father of all time with his flat top 🍅

[@thetruesoulofanaquarius9302]

Absolutely I couldn't stand Frank.

[@Team90sBABE]

Lol he was not. I mean he had his moments that made him flawed. But he was a very relatable Dad character. Growing up my parents weren't super strict but they were strict compared to my friend's parents. I always related to Moesha. The things Frank said No to or got upset about reminded me alot of my Dad what he allowed and didn't allow.

[@rachelmartin5187]

Even though Frank was definitely flawed, they ruined his character by the end. Also, how can you say he's the worst father when the following TV dads exist: 1. Archie Bunker (All in the Family) 2. Al Bundy (Married with Children) 3. Frank Barone (Everybody Loves Raymond) 4. Michael Kyle (My wife and kids) 5. Dre Johnson (Blackish) 6. Christopher Hayden (Gilmore Girls) 7. Benny Upshaw (The Upshaws)

[@Beauty_and_the_Beats]

I hated the 3rd intro version. We just rewatched as an adult and they way they did the frank/dorian/dee situation was a mess. And her made up engagement to q then hook up with Hakeim.

[@jayvandyke2972]

every single time brandy or RAY J joins a show it gets cancelled this The game One On one and STAR the curse is real

[@lars7282]

Always messy when mom is your manager

[@thinktank0218]

Moesha was really our. Silent undercover. First 304. The pookie she had member from onyx. He was the first pookie

[@zarario4444]

How old are you? I see you never progressed past the highschool mentality.

[@SoRealBeauty]

In my honest opinion, them making ray j her dad [ the on show dad] his biological son, was the biggest mistake ever. It was the beginning of the end. But I enjoyed watching Moesha as well as The Parkers. RIP to all the beautiful souls that lost their lives, and continued success in whatever future endeavors the rest of the cast have for themselves.

[@RVX1989]

I never clicked on a video so fast 😂😂

[@taureanmay1411]

[@shawntaythetvshowwomenthec9515]

Can you please do Boy Meets World

[@AmoMe2009]

I would LOVE LOVE LOVE that too!!! Moesha, Sister Sister and Boy Meets World was my childhood!!!
