Barbershop (TV series)
''Barbershop: The Series'' is an American sitcom which made its debut on the Showtime cable network in August 2005. It is based upon the Mark Brown-created characters from the popular films ''Barbershop'' (2002) and ''Barbershop 2: Back in Business'' (2004),〔("A fresh cut for the ‘Barbershop’ franchise" ), MSNBC.com, August 8, 2005. Retrieved October 20, 2009.〕 and was developed for television by screenwriter John Ridley. It starred Omar Gooding as Calvin Palmer, Jr., the proprietor of an African-American barbershop on the South Side of Chicago, Illinois.
The series was produced by ''Barbershop'' and ''Barbershop 2'' producers George Tillman, Jr. and Robert Teitel, along with original ''Barbershop'' star Ice Cube. It lasted for only one season, and ten episodes were aired (seven of which were written by Ridley).
==Production==
While the original films were no stranger to controversy, the series uses humor to more deeply explore a variety of issues related to the contemporary African-American community,〔Yarbrough, Marti. ("Omar Gooding leads cast of new TV comedy 'Barbershop'" ), ''JET'', August 15, 2005. Retrieved October 20, 2009.〕 including drug abuse, entrepreneurship, local politics, and the use of the N-word.
Continuing from the events of ''Barbershop 2'', the series makes several minor changes. Isaac's surname is changed from Rosenberg to Brice (and the dark-haired man becomes a blond). The Nigerian-born Dinka is renamed "Yinka", as Yinka is an actual Nigerian name, while Dinka is not.〔Mitovich, Matt Webb. ("Barbershop's Immigrant Gets a Makeover" ), ''TV Guide'', August 25, 2005. Retrieved October 18, 2009.〕 Additionally, Dinka was naive and slightly overweight, while Yinka is well-educated and muscular. Ricky, the reformed criminal, is replaced by a more hardened ex-con, Jen's distant relative Romadal Dupree. Finally, Isaac and Jimmy (instead of Yinka) each harbor a crush on Terri.
