Tiny & Toya: What Did You Think?
Published by Starr Rhett on Wednesday, July 1, 2009 at 11:00 am.
I initially imagined that Tiny & Toya would be more like the babymama version of Laverne and Shirley, but with a pretentious twist (like the rest of the world). However, the first episode was more interesting than I anticipated.
The show chronicles the lives of good friends, Tameka “Tiny” Cottle, TI’s alleged wife, and Antonia “Toya” Johnson-Carter, Lil Wayne’s ex-wife and first child’s mother. In last night’s premier, we got a first glimpse into each woman’s world. Tiny is dealing with her now incarcerated “husband” preparing to go to prison in addition to her father having Alzheimer’s disease, while Toya struggles with a drug addicted mother.
What I like so far, is that each woman has her own identity and they both seem very down-to-Earth. Tiny reminded us in the opening credits, that she had her own career and money before TI, and Toya was Lil Wayne’s teenage love (from back in the CMB days).
It’s not ostentatious like The Real Housewives of Atlanta, and Tiny and Toya actually act their ages. Sorry drama addicts, I don’t think you’ll be seeing too much cattyness this season. I’m definitely tuning in next week. What did you think?
Tiny and Toya airs Tuesday nights on BET at 10pm ET
LOVED the show. Each woman is her own person undeniably. Will definitely be tuning in for the remaning episode. Hopefully they will get a 2nd season.
So far this show is boring, and I don’t care if your mom is on drugs Toya, you should never disrespect your mother, let’s see what next week will bring.
I like the show, I thought it was going to be another one of those reality shows that represents Black Women in a bad light. This was different with real life issues that hit close to home for me and I know for others. Good Job Ladies!
