Isn't Cynthia 'doing' a black American?Yup she's a xenophobe. Don't even like Black Americans yet she's playing every Black American role she can. A d@mn shame.

She looks exactly like MJB! Like so much alike! however, if there is an MJB docudrama I do not want Erivo playing her either. I also doubt she can sing any of MJB songsNo shade, but Cynthia reads more like Mary J Blige than Aretha Franklin.
Did Cynthia watch anything with Aretha? Did she do any research? Anything? I know the family didn't support it but that's no excuse.
The actual series is well acted but only if I didn't think she was playing Aretha.
Its strange and I don't see any of the mannerisms, physical differences aside.
I'm even turned off by MLK in this. Dude in Selma movie didn't look like MLK, but he embodied him (and they had a similar shaped head). This square-headed mf-er ain't doing it for me.
And why Aretha's husband remind me of a filled-out Dave Chappell?
What in the time-haters hell am I watching?
The best part of the movie was the ending when they showed a snippet of the real Queen of Soul slaying Nessum Dorma at the Grammys. The series got sloppy at the end. When they brought Ken Cunningham in, they left out their child together, very weird. There was no mention of him whatsoever. They made it seem like Ken was her boyfriend for a brief time before she met Glynn. Aretha's son Clarence introduced her to Glynn. They left that out too and it would have been something cute to add. They seemed to want to focus on Rev. CL Franklin's antics more than anything.
Aretha was a beautiful woman and I still cannot believe they cast that ugly toad to portray her smh

If they had replaced cynthia I would watch cause it looks decent and that bit may reveal more dirt then the movie which will gloss over anything to heavy but I'll look out for clips on youtube. Here's the trailer and she's not giving me Aretha at all
It looks decent
I'll be watching

It's incredible! Thank you, National Geographic. Iconic Aretha!
